Weaver Hills Fell Races | Senior Race

After the success of the previous Weaver Hills Fell Races we're honoured to host a round of the FRA Junior Championships, sponsored by Pete Bland Sports for 2024! Participants can return and tackle this traditional, exciting fell race, with the addition of two new routes for the Juniors. You'll be exploring a beautiful but lesser known part of Staffordshire. Based from Shawcroft Farm at Wootton thanks to Henry and the team at Daltons Dairy. These short but perfectly formed races are certainly going to to make for a fantastic Saturday afternoon. From the farm you'll head up hill on fields and tracks before turning at the highest point, read to enjoy a fast descent all the way to the finish! The U9 and the U11 races are both new routes over the fields, with a 'BS' amount of elevation. The U13 route will involve some scrambling up the side of Weaver Hill, and is also a 'BS' cateogory race. The U15/U17/U19 and the Senior Race all follow the original 'AS' route and include the “route choice” full ascent of Weaver Hill to the trig, where participants can enjoy the spectacular views as they catch their breath before a fast descent to the finish.
