An Isle of Wight man has been counting his medal tally after successful showings at two national athletic championships.

Earlier this year, Steve Davis entered three events in the M65 – M69 age group at The British Masters Winter Throws Championship, held in Oxford.

In the discus, Steve finished fifth but claimed two bronze medals in the javelin and weight – a 9kg short hammer – competitions.

Steve also entered a non-championship shot competition, where he claimed second place.

On the weekend of May 13/14, Steve entered five events in the Southwest Veterans Athletic Championships.

He collected four gold medals in the 100m, discus, shot and javelin events and secured silver in the long jump.

Steve would like to thank the Isle of Wight Council and Wightlink for their support.
