Steve Blagdon was the outstanding performer for the men's team with wins in the 200m in 22.4 and the 400m in 51.5. An excellent throw of 49.19m won the hammer competition for Nigel Winchcombe and he was also 2nd in the discus with 37.85m. Youngster Danny Roome made his senior debut in the 1500m and produced the goods with a winning personal best time of 4.17.5. And a further track win went to Simon Bell with 16.13.1 in the 5000m. There were good 2nd places for Jason Hall in the 3000m steeplechase in 10.24.5, for Nick Marsh in the 10000m in 37.26.0 and for Malc Bramhall with a good time of 60.5 in the 400m hurdles. Geoff Powley picked up useful 3rd places in the 110m hurdles in 19.0 and the javelin with 43.65m and Steve Swaby was kept busy with 2nd spot in the high jump (1.60m), 3rd in the triple jump (11.45m) and 4th in the long jump (5.81m). A good clearance of 3.40m gave Adrian White 2nd place in the pole vault and he was also 4th in the shot with 9.76m. Will Strangeway recorded a personal best 2.07.1 for 4th place in the 800m and Jimoh Ayuba returned to action with 4th spot in the 100m in 11.8.

Several of the club's big names were not in action in this match but if a full strength squad is turned out for the semi final at Derby on July 19th there is a realistic chance of Wellington making the final of the competition for the first time in the club's history.
