Witney retained the Richard Early Cup in the relay gala at the Windrush Leisure Centre in their first competition of the new season.

It was the home club's consistency which brought them a thoroughly deserved overall victory.

This was highlighted in the 15 and under group Louise Barden, Hannah Barrett, Chantal Clavaud, Sophie Harris, Fiona Macdonald, Joanne Trask and Rachel Walton helped them make a clean sweep in their five relays.

In the boys 15 and under category, Greg Barrett, James Cooper, Adam Copperwheat, and Luke Wilmshurst, ensured they were also unbeaten in all their events.

**Final result: Witney 173, Maxwell 139, Ruislip-Northwood 130, Wellingborough 75, Henley 70.
