Wigan Harriers AC

Birmingham, you were brilliant! A massive thank you to SPAR for giving our young Harriers the chance to experience the European Athletics Championships up close. We were there after winning SPAR’s Go to the Games competition, recognised for our club’s growth and the work our volunteer coaches put into developing young athletes. Watching Keely kick off her 800m campaign was the perfect motivation boost.
