YDL Upper – Perivale ...
Our U20/U17 squad continued their fine start to the Youth Development League at Perivale on Sunday, winning 22 events and finishing third.

After a lacklustre opening fixture in Winchester last month, we bounced back to win our home match on a warm sunny afternoon at Perivale on Sunday. It was a tight contest, and we finished just a few points ahead of both North Devon and Highgate Harriers. The win came through a combination of victories in […]

The club was well represented in this year’s Mini Marathon. All 32 London Boroughs compete against each other in different age group categories, and a good proportion of young athletes selected from the Borough of Ealing were ESM club members.
