Cross Country
Twenty students travelled to the South Downs over half term for our annual cross country training camp. Students enjoyed a range of theory lessons, practical runs involving hills, intervals, long run and fartlek and yoga classes.
Hockey
Our 1st XI are through to the quarter fnals of the National Cup competition after beating Alleyn’s 3-0.
Golf
Sanjana Sharma came third place in the Rome Classic Tournament in her age group. This is an international tournament and qualifies for the final World Championships held in the USA and the Junior World Scoreboard.
Netball
Over half term 21 netballers travelled to Barbados for pre-season training. The girls had a fantastic time, enjoying two training sessions with a Barbados coach and five matches per team. The girls were undefeated on the trip but more importantly had the opportunity to bond together as teammates which should help prepare for a prosperous season ahead. On top of this they got to experience much of the island’s natural wildlife from turtles, to eagle rays, while creating some fantastic memories! Thank you to all the staff and pupils involved for a memorable trip.
Power Lifting
Jago Masters travelled to Hartlepool to the Strongman competition (North of England Log and Deadlift Championship 2022). This was his first competition and he not only won first place in the Under 16 category (at only 14) but smashed the current unofficial deadlift world record of 160kg with an impressive personal best of 185kg in his age category.
Sailing
Martin Atilla and Becky Caiger (OS 2022) represented GBR at the RS Aero European Youth (U22) Team Racing Championships in Italy and won the event!
Tennis
Our junior girls beat St Paul’s 5-1 in the semifinal of the National Cup to reach the regional finals. Our junior boys play on Thursday in their semifinal versus Reed’s.
