and arranging a fitting one minute silence immediately prior to the Under 17/Under 20 event
in respect of the two talented Aldershot athletes who had been tragically killed whilst out training
earlier in the week, and before the Senior event to observe the annual Armistice Ceremony.
​
In addition to this, all of the Morpeth Harriers Under 17 and Under 20 athletes wore Black Ribbons
on their vests as an extra tribute to the Aldershot Athletes Lucy Pygott and Stacey Burrows.
