winter league final 2026
Our biggest league final yet — eight categories, including the debut of our new 45+ Men and 45+ Women categories. A few of the heats came right down to the last bloc and few of you came up from the last qualifying spot to take the win. Whatever happened on your night, thanks for being part of it. Here’s how it played out…….
Big thanks to Tom Tudor for shooting the night. Photos are below, feel free to share them, just give @tudorshoots and @cityblocleeds a tag when you do.
