Firstly I hope everyone is well and staying healthy during these difficult times. Following British Cycling and Government guidelines we are aiming to run the Young Hackney Primary Schools Cycling League this season. In agreement with Young Hackney our plan is to make all events run against the clock rather than mass start races. So like the traditional season starter - the Hill Climb - all events will be time trial events with riders setting off individually. We can keep teams in their own bubbles this way and protect those racing. For the indoor events on the rollers it may be we bring the rollers to each school in turn over a one or two week period to ensure indoors we keep safe as well. If things improve then later on in the season we could see group races again so we will remain fluid and optimistic.
Under the current rule of six organised sport is still allowed so we'll proceed cautiously.It is I think very important that sport continues to be part of the children's lives and education so I hope you will agree and get in touch to say so. We have meeting set up soon and hopefully will be speaking with you all after which we wlll firm up the planned league.
Congratulations to Millfields Cycling Team for winning last seasons league - they were awarded it after the last three events were cancelled due to Covid, it looked unlikely their point advantage would have been brought close enough for the next team to challenge so the final league standings for 2019-20 are as follows -
