WHY COMPETE?​
​
Competition is the best way to see if your training is working. Whilst everyone feels nervous, it can be very exciting and rewarding to have a personal best (PB) that you may use as a goal to help focus and work hard in training.
Competing for the club in a league event or county championships is fantastic fun, and the shared excitement and support of fellow teammates helps many athletes excel.
For some athletes, competing is a way of ensuring selection to the county team or individual national events, such as English Schools.​​
