Aberdeen AAC Open Graded Meet: 23 July 2017
A huge well done to Alan Robertson who competed in the Aberdeen AAC OGM, as part of his preparations for the upcoming European Masters Athletics Championships in Aarhus, Denmark. Unconfirmed results indicate that Alan clocked 11.44 in the 100m and 23.16 in the 200m, both times a fraction off of his current PBs, which is very encouraging indeed. His daughter Lucy, one of our U13 athletes, who is also competing in the javelin event at the YDL final in Grangemouth on Saturday, ran a PB 100m time of 16.13. Well done Lucy!
Livingston OGM: 19th July 2017
A few of our U13 T&F athletes made the journey through to Livingston and bagged some super new PBs!
Results (subject to scrutiny):
Ava Lenzi: 100m – 15.27 and LJ – 3.74m (PB);
Emma Kelly: 100m – 14.96(PB) and LJ – 2.94(PB);
Niamh Morris: 100m – 17.30(PB) and LJ – 2.87(PB).
A huge well done girls!

Open Graded: Ravenscraig RSF 6.00pm, 30 March 2016
A wee reminder to encourage athletes to attend the Open Graded at Ravenscraig on Wednesday 30th March 2016.
It’s a great opportunity to compete for the first time or to get a new personal best.
The style of an open grade competition means that athletes are matched with other athletes on ability rather than by age or gender. As a result, athletes who are competing for the first time or who have had limited experience are able to be competitive against others who are in the same position. It also means that those who are more experienced and have been training longer can be pushed hard by competing against others in different age groups.
We would love to see lots of MAC athletes at this local event. Closing date is 27th March. Entries can be made online at http://www.nlleisure.co.uk/
Open Graded Event: Ravenscraig Regional Sports Facility, 30th March 2016
The next Open Graded event is at Ravenscraig RSF on 30th March at 6.30pm. This is another great opportunity for everyone to compete indoors and get a time/distance registered.
Events available are: 60m; 100m; shot putt; long jump and high jump. Event times and further details, including how to enter, can be found here: http://www.nlleisure.co.uk/
When registering online, you will be asked for your Personal Best (PB). If you have competed previously you can get this from Power of 10: http://www.powerof10.info or check with your coach. For track events, athletes are grouped into heats based on their PB and will compete with people of a similar ability.
Each event costs £3 to enter and it is usually pre-entry only. Please arrive an hour before the start time of the event(s) you have entered to warm up and collect your race number. One of our coaches will be there to assist and support athletes as required.
It would be great to see lots of Motherwell AC vests at a local event, but if you can’t make it, there is still the opportunity to train as normal.
