The LWTFC sent a small but mighty contingency to the AO U20 Outdoor Championships, held on July 22-25, 2021 at the Toronto Track & Field Centre. Many of our athletes that were competing were well under 20, so winning 7 medals and finishing third overall is an impressive accomplishment!
There were 4 Gold, 2 Silver, and 1 Bronze medals nabbed by our club, along with finishes in scoring positions from 4th to 8th that contributed to the team’s 95 points for a 3rd Overall team standing.
Listed below are the highlights of the weekend competition. Congratulations to all athletes on your efforts and achievements. Be sure to check our Gallery for more photos.
