English Schools Athletics Association - Cross Country Cup  (National Finals)

Congratulations to the Senior Boys' Cross Country team who competed at the National Finals in Leeds over the weekend.  An incredible achievement to make it to the finals which saw the best schools in England compete.  The journey to making it to the final was not easy, and saw us up against the best schools across the South East of England, many of them private schools with specific Cross Country coaches.  Having qualified in the top 3 in each of the previous rounds, the team was all ready to challenge themselves on the biggest stage of all.

The event was an extremely high standard and our team managed a creditable 20th place finish as a team.  A massive thank you to Mr Fudge who took the team up to the event, which saw Felix, David and Louis compete for the school for the last time (as all are in Year 13).  A special mention to Billy, Victor, Leo and Ilyas who also competed as part of the team and will hopefully have the chance to compete again next year.
