Welsh League Overall Standings ...
Due to the cancellation of the Christmas 'Cross/League Final Overall Standings have been taken from the best 6 results compiled after Round 9 at Pembrey. Individual trophies will be posted out to the first three in each category. Perpetual trophies will be engraved and held at the Welsh Cycling Office for collection; trophy winners will be acknowledged at the first event next season.
Many thanks to all who have supported the Welsh League this season. I am sorry for the unsatisfactory end to it but hope you have found it enjoyable and rewarding and look forward to seeing you all again in 2011.
Wishing you a Happy Christmas and a healthy and successful New Year.
