Leicestershire & Rutland Schools Cross Country League – Important Notice
Following the recent announcement by Mike McSharry regarding the cancellation of the 2025 season and his resignation as Race Director, we would like to provide an update.
The remaining organising team from the past three seasons are keen to continue the league and are beginning preparations for the 2026 season.
A meeting will be held in early January 2026 for all interested parties. We invite anyone who would like to help re-establish this long-standing, well-organised league and join our dedicated team of volunteers to attend.
All official updates and correspondence will be shared exclusively via the Facebook page and this official league website.
Please note that any other events or communications you may receive via schools or email are not affiliated with or organised by this league.
Thank you for your continued support — together, we can keep this fantastic tradition going!
If you would like to attend or have any questions please email LeicestershireandrutlandschoolsXC@outlook.com
