Two interesting cross-country matches, will be run at Leasowe this Saturday afternoon. The senior and junior teams of Wallasey Athletic Club will entertain the R.A.F. West Kirby, who gave the club a good run last season.
The under 16 team, has a fixture with Prenton Secondary School, Birkenhead, which, it is hoped, will be the first of a series of matches to engage the interest of the younger members of the club and those others who enjoyed the recent schoolboys championships.
Training slackened off recently due to the bad weather and the holiday season, so that only the regulars were on the job. With the close approach of the championship season all team members are urged to resume their regular attendance for training in order that the club may improve upon its good performance in the Cheshire Championships.
