Newham and Essex Beagles are one of the most successful athletics clubs in Britain. In the past four years the Beagles have finished the year three times as British Athletics League Champions. This coincides with an amazing two year run where Newham and Essex Beagles completed two years finishing 1st in every single league meeting.

On top of this, the Beagles have had exceptional success on the international circuit. This included 14 of our athletes (including 2 Higher Competition) competing in the 2011 World Championships in Daegu. This also brought an impressive medal haul from Beagles athletes, with Mo Farah bringing home one Gold in the 5,000m to go along with his Silver in the 10,000m.

As well as being the only England Athletics Club with a reigning World Champion, we're also the only club in Great Britain to list a reigning Olympic Champion amongst our members. Christine Ohuruogu, after joining the club as a youngster, can list the accolades of World, Olympic and Commonwealth champion on her heavily impressive CV.
