Masters domination from PANVAC and results from King's Lynn, Thurlby, Eye, Chelmsford and Holkham Hall

​With the men and the ladies dominating the fixture, the highlight of the night came in the final event, the 4 x 200m relay.

PANVAC secured maximum points finishing first over 35s and first over 50s team, but the big surprise came as the over 50 team of Tracy Barnes, Ros Loutit, Judith Jagger and Wendy Day held off the over 35 team in the final straight, despite former British Masters 200m gold medalist Claire Smith running a storming last leg in pursuit of a fast finishing Day.

The PANVAC men also won maximum points in the relays, but there was more order to it as the over 35s finished 10 seconds up on the over 50s.

There was not much that the men didn't win with Iain Mclaughlan first in the over 35 100m and Matthew Parsons first in the 400m in the same age group. Julian Smith comfortably won the over 50 200m & 400m races.

It was a clean sweep across the 1,500m with Phil Martin first over 35 in 4:31.3, Dave Neal first over 50 in 5:08.9, with Barry Warne the leading over 60 with a time of 5:55.2.

Tim Clough only took up race walking last year, but has made giant strides in a short period of time. After winning the 2,000m walk in 11:57.1 he now finds himself third in the national over 50 rankings.

Pete Brantom won the B walk and Karl Eve was victorious in the over 50 high jump and javelin.

Team captain Claire Smith won the over 35 100m, 400m and high jump.

Wendy Day won the over 50 100m and 400m on a memorable club debut. Smith posted times of 15.6 for the 100m and 73.1 for the 400m.

Betty Gash took first place in the over 60 400m and 1,500m while Ros Loutit won the over 50 1,500m in a time of 5:42.1.

Away from the track Andrea Jenkins and Sally Pusey both won their hammer and javelin competitions, while Judith Jagger took top spot in the over 60 javelin and over 50 triple jump.

With the final League fixture taking place at The Embankment track on August 1, only a complete disaster can stop PANVAC winning both the men's and ladies competitions before heading off to Bedford for the September finals.
