With both just coming off a block of heavy winter training, performances were predictably slightly under par.

Fleur Hollyer (under-17) recorded 8.48sec in the 60m, and Rachel Laurie (under-20) clocked 8.60sec for fifth spot in her final of the 60m.

Both will be competing in the England indoor championships at Sheffield.
