Radley's A team got their Southern Women's League Division 1 campaign off to a flying start by finishing joint winners at Tilsley Park, Abingdon.

They shared first place with Portsmouth with 207 points.

There were sparkling performances across all the age groups, with the sprinters and hurdlers particularly to the fore.

Under 15 athlete Olivia Elder posted a sprint double, winning both the 100m and 200m, clocking 13.1secs and 27.3 respectively in the A string races.

At senior level, Tara Kafke, Kay Reynolds and Paula Woodland rattled up three wins and a second in the 100m and 200m.

Kafke won the A string 100m in style, cruising home in 12.3, while Reynolds followed suit with victory in the B string race.

Kafke also came second in the 200m in 26.8, while Woodland won the B string race in 27.2.

In the hurdles, Becky Sanders-Clarke ran an impressive 48.5 in the under 17 race, while teammate Stacey Middleton clocked 50.7 to win her race.

The under 17 pair then gained two second places in the A and B string 80m hurdles, Middleton recording 13.1 and Sanders-Clarke 12.9.

The senior hurdlers also clocked up good points with first and second in the A and B string 400m hurdles, followed by a brace of seconds in the 100m hurdles.

Other good performances came from Emma Grant and Emma Whelan, who won the A and B string 800m in times of 2mins 24.1secs and 2.39.5 respectively, and Reynolds (1.60m) and Kelly Daly (1.55) in the high jump.
