Shakespeare Competition

The aim of the Shakespeare Competition is to provide friendly rivalry throughout the year by a series of competitive races, held on the first Wednesday of every month.

Club members (usually in pairs) volunteer to organise the races themselves, and provide information via e mail or the noticeboard at least two weeks in advance (date, venue, start time, route description and/or map if possible and parking arrangements if necessary).

To encourage members to volunteer additional points are allocated to Race Organisers. If you are interested in organising a race in the future please speak to any member of the Race Committee.

The races may start from the Sports Club, but usually they are based from a local pub with food being provided afterwards. This ensures a range of different routes and provides an excellent post race social occasion. To cover costs an entry fee will be charged (currently £3 per race)

The new structure means that age points are no longer awarded but there are still additional points to be won by playing your joker. Playing your joker doubles any points you win in that particular race. Choosing which race to play your joker is your choice but to maximise your points it will depend on your level of fitness and who else has turned up, and you must tell the race organiser before the start!!

Only your best 8 races count towards the competition

Inter Club Competition

To provide some friendly inter club rivalry we compete against Kenilworth and Spa Striders on an annual basis with clubs taking it in turn to host. These races follow the format of the Shakespeare Competition with the host club selecting a route and pub for after race refreshments. interclub team

There is a trophy for the winning club but it’s the taking part and making new friends that counts

To encourage members to take part, these races are always incorporated into our list of Shakespeare Races. When we are not hosting, these races will probably not be on the first Wed of the month – so they provide an additional race in our calendar.
