Sun 23rd October Bury v Astley & Tyldesley Bury

Astley & Tyldesley's youngsters have won the Northern League Division 3 title for the 4th successive year!

A&T lined up in the season finale at Bury on Sunday, with both teams having lost one match apiece, so whoever won the match won the league. A&T made a strong start, leading 37-31 after the first round of races had been completed. This extended to 74-60 at the halfway stage, with Team Green finishing as convincing 145-122 winners. John White raced to a 16 points maximum score in the u-10s category, with team mates Nathan Holt and Charlie Burgess dropping one point each. In the u-13s category, Emily Burgess was unlucky not to race unbeaten, finishing 3rd last time out after leading the original running of the race. Bury's Louis Turner raced unbeaten in the u-13s match.

All 14 Astley & Tyldesley riders put in a great show of determination,to win the Northern League Division 3 title for the 4th successive year, a truly remarkable achievement. Thanks go to Catherine White for bringing the celebratory cakes for the riders to enjoy afterwards.

Congratulations go to Bury, on pushing A&T hard all the way through the season. Both clubs deserve great credit for their continuing commitment to junior recruitment and development.
