Fri, 12th May 17

Rounding out the University Sports Year this week was the Cardiff Met Athletics Union Sports Awards, the night celebrates all the fantastic performances achieved by Met student athletes across 33 individual AU Clubs. Athletics was represented at the awards as in previous years by our scholars and invited guests, thank you to those who where there to support the club and our award nominees. Following up a brilliant 2016-17 BUCS season, second year sprinter, Amy Odunaiya was the winner of the Most Improved Individual Award. Amy has been recognised for her performance improvements in the 100m and 200m, including a brilliant medal at this years indoor BUCS, as well as her contribution to relay teams at both championships.
