The Independence Relay Championships turned out to be a two-club show but the Police Progressive Youth Club (PPYC) played the starring role.

Staged at the National Track and Field Centre yesterday, the PPYC ran away with most of the spoils ahead of the relay teams from the Running Brave Athletic Club, the Hopetown Flames, Rurallites And GDF.

An impressive day across the board saw the well prepared athletes from the PPYC winning nine of the 16 events including all six of the 4x400m relays for the different age groups and genders.
