UPDATE: CANCELLATION OF LYTCHETT RELAYS 2022
An email have been sent to all registered Teams and Runners...
The Lytchett Relays Team are sorry to inform all teams that the decision has been made to cancel this event.
After we sadly lost the use of Holton Lee Estate, we have been searching tirelessly for the past few months to source another suitable location. Like many race companies, we found our biggest challenge during our search came down to the increase in event costs. The recurring themes in all our conversations are that the old finance model doesn’t exist any more and all venues / landowners are wanting much higher fees than in the past. On top of that the hire fees for event infrastructure has also, increased to prices beyond our event budget.
We have always considered the Lytchett Relays at Holton Lee to be different from other races and are local enough to attract lots of teams from local clubs. We are not a professional race company and don’t wish to create an event that maybe be similar to other providers - we just don’t have the budget or resources available to do so.
The Holton Lee Estate may come back online sometime in future, but for now there is no guarantees.
ACTION REQUIRED
Please can the your team captain contact David Rustell directly with your details - so that I can process a full team refund, rather than having to process these individually.
