Lack of entries forces cancellation of Summer Sprint

Posted: July 13, 2009 4:59 PM

At a meeting of directors last night (Tuesday, July 14) it was decided to cancel next Sunday's Summer Sprint. A severe lack of entries has forced the club into this decision. An entry of 80 competitors would have been needed just to break even and with the short time remaining before the event it was considered that at best only half that number might compete.

The event was scheduled to take place over the same course as last year's event which had attracted an entry of 105 competitors.

A club spokesperson said: "It's a shame that we are forced to cancel the Summer Sprint. We had an excellent event last year, but this year the interest was not there. Competitors are cutting back and unfortunately our event was one of those that suffered. The club have no plans to run the event at a later date in 2009."
