Article: ATHLETICS: Is this the last picture of the track without the cage...?!

THIS is the sorry sight of the empty throwing cage area at the Rugby track - which has been useless for the best part of a year.

Although there have been many broken promises of a new cage before - there could at last be a glimmer of hope on the horizon.

Rugby Borough Council's Parks and Cemeteries manager, Stephen Beasley said: "The contractors have been on site over the weekend to do the final checks in preparation for the cage and should let us know the date for installation very soon."

The lack of facilities for discus and hammer have caused massive disruption for Rugby & Northampton AC since the old cage was taken down in September.
