We would like to congratulate all athletes on their performances during the 2017/18 season. At our annual Presentation Day we announced the winners of the Most Improved trophies. Athletes receive points each time they improve on their previous best result for an event. These are totalled at the end of the season, and a trophy is awarded to the athlete with the most improvement points for their age group.  Due to our shortened season with the transition to WestMAC, there were not enough events to determine the most improved over the number of meets, so for this season only we have awarded the following breakdown of Most Improved athletes.

Congratulations to our Overall Most Improved athletes Kahil Deale (U8) and Leah Leembruggen (U8).

The 2017/18 winners were:
