The long, undulating but fast course at the picturesque venue at Strathallan School found the young Welsh team wanting as only boys team captain
Jonathan Hopkins (Brynteg- Glamorgan Valleys) gained a top 10 placing.
He was always in the leading pack and held his place on the second lap of the 6000m course to complete a fine cross-country season.
England as expected dominated the team events gaining a clean sweep including the perfect score of 21 points in the junior girls age group. To their credit the Welsh junior girls team gained the only medals of the weekend as they packed well behind 10th place Ffion Price (Llandrindod- Powys).
English dominance was broken in the intermediate age group as hosts Scotland gained a remarkable double with rising stars Beth Potter and Callum Hawkins looking impressive in their victories.
