Adrian DaleEngagement LeadMy wife and daughter have been members of the club for over 10 years and I joined over three years ago, so the club is a big part of my life. I want to ensure the club continues to grow both in reputation and financially. I don’t have the athletic ability (yet) to help with the reputation but I hope to provide some assistance with the finances by putting on a few social events throughout the year to help showcase what else the club has to offer to compliment the athletic side. I want more people using the bar, coffee hut and function room and social events, such as the Halloween and Christmas Events, as they are an ideal and profitable advertisement for this.
Jamie SircomClub JournalistMy name is Jamie Sircom and I have been a member of Halesowen Athletics Club since November 2012.

I regularly compete for the club in the Worcestershire Midweek Series and the Midlands Vets League and am also well known for taking part in over 300 parkrun events!

I was honoured to join the committee following my work in writing the monthly Newsround newsletter.

Being on the committee helps me understand all the activities and issues of the club fully and ensure it is presented and promoted in a positive way through the newsletter, website and social media.
Adam CrossCommittee Member

My name is Adam Cross. I have been a member since around 2014. I originally joined the club as a parent when both my daughters joined the club's youth groups, but I soon became a competitive member in my own right.
Although I discovered athletics quite late in life compared to some, Halesowen offers something for all ages from 8 to 80.
I joined the club committee as I feel I can help shape the future of the club based on my own experiences as a parent and athlete myself.
As a local council officer, I also bring a knowledge of wider issues in the local area and public sector which are relevant to the club
