The Cross Country season runs from November to March each year and the club competes in the Oxfordshire Cross Country League (OCCL) as well as the Southern Championships and National Championships.
As always the club enters and pays to to compete in the Oxfordshire Cross Country League for the 1st Sunday of the month from Nov – March. This is very much a team event, and we encourage as many Harriers to come and join in.
You can simply do one round or as many as you like. Free to all Harriers. Please contact Simon Leech, if you are interested in giving it a go! simonmarcleech@gmail.com
Events 2020/21
As a result of the ongoing (Oct ’20) Coronavirus pandemic the return to Cross-Country competition is uncertain. The Oxfordshire Cross-Country League has cancelled the two rounds that would have taken place in November and December 2020. The rounds due to take place in 2021 will be reviewed. More details are on the OCCL website.
