The main cross country event through the season is the North East Harrier League (NEHL). This is a series of six races running from October through to March.
Clubs gain points based on the finishing positions of their athletes (first six to count for senior men, first four for the women). A handicap system is used, with fast and slow packs giving everyone the chance to be competitive.
Alongside the NEHL there are also the North East Cross Country Championships, the Northern Cross Country Championships and the English Nationals.
Ask your Coach or XC Team Captain for more information.
