Cross Country (from Myra Jones and Bob Jackson)
This year all entries are online and you can
either enter the whole series or each race individually. If you're going to run 3 or more races, it is
cheaper to enter the whole series
VALLEY
STRIDERS JUNIORS SHOULD NOT ENTER YET, WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH A DISCOUNT CODE
FOR FREE ENTRY
Online entry will open on Monday 15th
October, and will close (for series entries) on Thursday 15th November (10 days
before Race 1). This will allow for series race numbers to be personalised with
the runner's name and club (which should minimise the risk of anyone running in
the wrong number). Individual race entries will remain open (for Race 1) until
Friday 23rd November).
NB Seniors (i.e. adults) are required to
input their England Athletics affiliation/registration number. If you don't know your number, see www.valleystriders.org.uk/vsmemreg.htm
Entry
1) Senior series entry (chip timing race number & 5 race
entries) at a total cost of £14. Series race numbers can be collected from your
Club Representative on or before the first race. After this, just turn up and
run - no need to queue for registration, etc.
2) Senior single race entry (chip timing number & 1 race entry) at a total
cost of £7 (£3 for the race number, £4 for race entry). After this, subsequent
races can be entered at a cost of £4 per race (provided the original race
number is not lost / destroyed / forgotten)
3) Junior series entry (chip timing race number & 5 race entries) at a
total cost of £6. Series race numbers can be collected from club reps / junior
reps on the morning of the first race. After this, just turn up and run.
4) Junior single race entry (chip timing number & 1 race entry) at a total
cost of £4 (£2.50 for the race number, £1.50 for race entry). After this,
subsequent races can be entered at a cost of £1.50 per race (provided the

It's time to order VS hoodies! You have until
midnight on 5th November to order and pay.
You can order in 3 easy steps:
1) Choose what you want - all the details are on the kit page of the website http://www.valleystriders.org.uk/vskit.htm
2) Email your order to [email protected]
3) Make correct payment to: Sort code: 53 70 00, Account: 72143851, Reference:
"Hoodie" and your name
The hoodies are the same as we've ordered for
the last few years so if you want to try for size I'm sure someone will be
happy to let you try theirs on. Feedback is they are small for size.
When you email your order you must include
details of what you want from the following options:
- Full Zip / Pullover
- Black / Grey (pullover only comes in black)
- Mens / Ladies / Junior
- Size
- Text you want embroidered on the right chest
Thanks to Bethany Lovell for volunteering to
manage the orders.
and
Buffs
We have 25 Valley Striders AC buffs
(multi-functional headwear) in stock and available to order, £7 each. There is
just one design (black with white lettering) and one size fits all (should be
fine for most kids too).
1) Email your order to [email protected]
2) Make correct payment to: Sort code: 53 70 00, Account: 72143851, Reference:
"Buff" and your name as the reference.
