THE CHAMPIONSHIP

CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP

Dust off the mantlepiece and clear some room for a trophy or two.

A personal challenge, a little competition, a way to measure your progress… The Widnes Wasps Club Championship is meant to motivate and inspire, giving you a gentle nudge towards your goals

THE RULES

The Club Championship is based on designated races (follow the links below) and up to two ‘Wildcard’ races, which can be any officially measured and timed race of any of the designated distances i.e. 5k/5mile/10k/10mile/half marathon/20 mile and marathon.

The championship year runs from 1 April – 31 March.

NB. Due to race cancellations the 2020/21 championship was cancelled, we are hoping to provide a scaled down version for 2021/22 as there is still some uncertainty around which races will go ahead. The presentation night  has been put on hold until social events can be held again and the 2019/20 winners will be announced.
