Fantastic effort by DAC runners at Northern Cross Country relays in Sheffield

A great day at the Northern Cross country relay championships at Graves park Sheffield on 23 October.

Derby AC had a team in almost every age category, apart from U11 girls, with a turnout of 30 athletes. A massive thank you to all DAC supporters who gave the day a great atmosphere.

Great performances from all our athletes were led by an amazing team performance from the u15 boys, with Ewan Busfield (4th fastest overall) running the first leg and coming in 3rd, with Stanley Lowe bringing the team in 2nd, and Luke Bradbury doing incredibly well to hold his nerve and bring the team in 5th overall.
