Edition 74

Playoffs 18/03/2023

Doncaster made a strong showing on the first weekend of the playoffs, finishing second in a field of five, the lower two likely to be relegated to Division 2 next year. However, we cannot rest on our laurels, with one further week to go. It was pleasing to note that no over 40 athlete missed an event, and therefore the club didn’t lose any points.

Athletes to score more than 1000 points were:
