Time for action: Some of the equipment bought by the Back on Track appeal and used at the championships at the weekend.

FOLLOWING the latest damage done by vandals to the hammer cage net which put in jeopardy the Worcestershire County Track and Field Championships last Saturday, I would like to pay tribute to the parks department at Wyre Forest District Council for their sterling efforts in re-erecting the net on Friday.

It was a jumbled mess on the floor and took a long time to unravel but unravel it they did and eventually it was put up in position.

I would like to say that when I saw the finished product on the Friday evening, it was the best I had ever seen the cage looking.

It was passed by the Field Referee on the Saturday morning as safe for competition and the county event went ahead without a hitch.

I would also like to thank Hire It! for the loan of a generator to run the results computer, a PA system and gas-fired Urn to provide tea and coffee to all, on what was a hot day.

Thanks also to APQ Transport for the loan of a van to transport the equipment, purchased with funds from The Back On Track Appeal, from our lock-up to trackside.
