THE Pembrokeshire Harriers were back in action as the Welsh Junior Championships returned.

Held at the Newport International Sports Village, the Harriers notched 12 podium places over the two days, including six gold, three silver, and three bronze medals.

Those to take titles were Dafydd Pawlett, who triumphed in his shot putt event, while Lucy Wintle completed a double by winning both the 300m and 300m hurdles.

Ella Wintle was crowned 800m champion and Gracie Griffiths prevailed in the 3K walk.

Mike Jenkins also struck Gold in the discuss.

"It was amazing to watch," said Wayne Griffiths, one of the coaches at the Harriers.

"Between the two days there were 12 podium finishes, a host of personal bests, and lots of happy athletes."

Griffiths added it was simply great for the club to be able to be back competing again, and last month Rhys Llewellyn, the Wintle pair, Pawlett and Griffiths were all selected in the national squad having come through the Welsh Schools' trials.
