Crawley AC women secure promotion
Sprinter Kim Baptiste once again ran a fast time in the 100m, 11.51, although it was wind-assisted (+2.5 m/s) and doesn’t count as a club record.
Crawley AC’s under-13/under-15 team finished their season in the YDL season with a win.

The victory should have secured Crawley the Southern West 1 League title and they go into a paper match for promotion back into the Premier 2 Division.
Crawley athletes had one of their most successful English Schools Championships with a record haul of medals at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham:
Gold: Lillie Franks senior girls high jump 1.72m; Orla Brothers senior girls’ 400m hurdles 59.47; Adam Lindo junior boys’ long jump 6.35m PB.
Silver: William Snashall junior boys’ pole vault 3.45m
