ISA NATIONAL ATHLETICS

Grange children in Year 5 and 6 travelled to Sport City in Manchester to compete in the ISA National Athletics where they faced the best independent school athletes from all over England.

“All of our young athletes did very well with Tristan and Aadav climbing to the top step of the podium in the U12 long jump and U12 600m respectively, whilst many others also achieved top 3 finishes. The competition was tough and our children performed exceptionally well. Just getting to the finals is an achievement in itself,” said Gareth Evans, Head of Boys Sport at the Junior School.

Ten Grange athletes qualified for the national round of the competition after strong showings in the regional rounds held earlier in the year.
