Cross country fixtures

 

The re-arranged fourth fixture of the Gloucestershire CC League is being held on  Saturday 28th March 2009 at Leamington.  Although this date is not ideal it is the one with the least difficulties we could find. 

 

Arrangements are the same as for 7th Feb and are detailed below.

 

I particularly thank Noel Butler and Leamington C & AC for their help in promoting this event.

Under 11 boys: 11:45

Under 11 girls: 12:00

Under 13 boys: 12:15

Under 13 girls: 12:30

Under 15 boys & under 17 Men 12:50

 Directions to Newbold Comyn Park, Royal Leamington Spa

Approach from Evesham on the A46. Bypass Stratford on A46 towards Warwick. At junction with M40 (junction 15) take M40 south. At junction 14, (less than one mile later) leave M40. Go straight along slip road and across a small island. At next large island, take second exit onto A452.

Go straight across the next island into Europa Way (still A452). At the next island take the middle lane and go straight on towards Fords Foundry. Almost immediately there is another island go straight on (second exit) with Fords Foundry to your right into Princes Drive. Go under the Railway Bridge and fork left at next island (still Princes Drive).

Turn right at next mini-island and proceed under the railway bridge into Warwick New Road. Bear left at the next island into Warwick Place. Go straight across next set of traffic lights into Warwick Street. Continue across the next two sets of lights, still Warwick Street and then go straight across next the third set of lights into Willes Road.

At next set of lights turn left into Newbold Terrace East and follow the road to the end past the Leisure Centre for the nearest car park to race HQ. (For those who use a Satnav, the postcode for the Leisure Centre is CV32 4EW).
