Congratulations to Henry Procter, who finished the season with over 700 runs which is the highest number in around 30 years.

Sailing
Sevenoaks sailors enjoyed a very successful weekend at the schools’ nationals – the U19 A team retained their title, defeating Magdalen College in the final, while the B team finished fifth overall and the U17s finished third and fifth overall in their division. This is a fantastic achievement out of nearly 40 competing teams.
