KFL 2022/23 Match 6 - Blean Woods

Team

The team captains called for a big turnout for the penultimate match of the KFL 2022/23 season and the club responded with 29 recorded finishers at the event. With the race located deep in Canterbury Harriers' territory at Blean Woods, the SAC women needed to defeat the host club to regain top spot in the series, and they did so thanks to splendid performances from the whole squad.

Once again Bridgit Weekes was called upon to score for the team in the W55 category, and she was joined by fellow scorers Caroline Fenwick (W45), Andrea Berquez (W35) and Nicola Glover, while a further seven Sevenoaks women helped inflate the other teams' scores. The team finished second on the day behind Petts Wood, but with their close rivals Canterbury third, they now lead the series with just one race to go.

The SAC men also ran well to take fourth place with scorers Jeremy Winter, Darius Sarshar, William Palmer, Ed Saunders, Mike Lochead, James Mason, Javier Montoya Montero and Andrew Hutchinson, with the men's score contributing to second place for the combined team. After six of the seven matches, the combined team are third and the men are fourth.
