Despite the weather, the WSAPLD South Regional Finals on Tuesday, June 18th were a great success.
Schools and Club entries totalled over 500 and there was a huge programme of events to get through. Unfortunately, the rain did mean that some were cancelled but the majority of competitors went home with their well earned medals.
We were again grateful for the help from Team volunteers, Disability Sport Wales and for the continued support from First Choice Housing Association.
A special 'Thank you' to the brilliant PGCE and students from the Cardiff City Foundation.
Here's to Simon, Nathan, Sarah & Dave and to all who help to keep this event on the calendar.
Please send in any photos you may have of the day.

SOUTH WALES REGIONAL ATHLETICS EVENTS 2019Heats: Thursday May 16th and Finals: Tuesday June 18thAll entries must be in before Thursday, April 12th
Entry form & Information available for download now.
NEW FOR 2019
As Leckwith are relaying their track
we have had to book our Heats on a Thursday and Finals on a Tuesday.
Also, due to the high volume of entries in the Male 100m and 200m in 2018, it resulted in some races not taking place.
To ensure all male runners get their chance to compete, we ask that competitors are entered in one of these distances only.
· Male competitors can either compete in 100m or 200m.
· 400m & 800m are usually less subscribed so, if able, please consider
these races as an alternative
· PLEASE NOTE 60m races are for competitors who are unable to run
any other distance. If they are entered in a 60m race they cannot
be entered into any other races.
· Female competitors can enter what they are able due to low
numbers of entry received.
