England Athletics U15 and U17 Championships

Jason Nicholson followed up his English Schools title with a National title in the pouring rain in Bedford at the weekend.   Running a speedy 12.93 he took the gold in a photo-finish in the 100m Hurdles.   Amelia Bateman took Silver in the U15 girls High Jump – not easy jumping in the rain – with a jump of 1m65.

Emily Stewart (T38) took medals in the 100m, 200, LJ and Shot Putt and Joseph Gray (T47) had a pb in the Long Jump with 5m28 and took a medal in the 100m.

Good luck to Jason, Emily and Joseph who are all competing in the UK School Games final next weekend.
