TEAM NORTH CUMBRIA - MID LANCS LEAGUE XC

A message from Noel Hakeman...

About Team North Cumbria
'TNC2' is a 'composite team' registered with England Athletics and put together to enter the Mid Lancs XC League to help provide access to the League, and raise standards in Cumbrian distance running. The Mid Lancs XC League hosts annually some of the best quality xc races in the North of England.

The clubs registered in 'TNC2' are: -
Carlisle Aspatria AC
Cumberland Fell Runners,
Derwent AC
Keswick AC
Eden Runners (Seniors and Juniors )
Although Ellenborough AC are not in the composite, the MLL have stated there would be no objection to them being added.


Any member from any of the above clubs can compete for TNC2 teams in the MLL. Second claim members of these clubs can compete, but only as individuals, ie. as TNC 'non/counter'.
There is also a TNC team in the MLL summer 'track & field' league. (A different combination of clubs is involved).

The Mid Lancs XC League
Further details of the Mid Lancs League can be found on their website here: http://midlancs.org.uk/


There are races for all ages. Although there are no u11 events in the League structure, there are races for u11 at all fixtures.

The entry fee for TNC2 members is financed by the Cumbria XC Series, and there is nothing further to pay for members. In order to run for TNC2, you will need to get a number at your first event, and keep this for the season.

Vests
TNC2 runs in the same colours as the TNC track & field team.
Vests are £16 and can be obtained from Carlisle Aspatria AC. If anyone wants one I will try and get one for you before the event.
I have some Senior vests on order if you want to order one. Mens size 38 and Ladies 34.
(A sky blue T-shirt will also be adequate if you can not obtain a vest in time).
