Club Champs
CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP
How does the Club Championship Work?
We select a range of fell races for the annual Junior Club Champs. In each race, the Ambleside Juniors will be awarded points according to their position relative to other Ambleside Juniors in our age categories of U9; U11; U13; U15; U17; U19
The first Ambleside runner (in each of our age categories) will be awarded 12 points; second 10 points; third 9 points; fourth 8 points; etc to 11th place awarded 1 points. Each runner’s best 6 results will count towards their final Championship points total.
There are 12 races each year. Races aren’t held in school holidays, and mid week races are only held on Thursday club nights. Some races are part of the FRA English Junior Champs (link), and it would be fantastic to see loads of you there!
