If you have not already entered and would like your name to be entered into the draw, please reply to this email or put a comment on the post which will shortly appear on the Club Facebook page.

Update on Fell Championships: Although the host race for the 2021 Fell County Championships is going ahead, Dicky Wilkinson has informed Notts AAA that, due to continuing uncertainties, he has decided to put the health and welfare of the small team of volunteers first and sadly the Championships is cancelled for 2021.
