We're delighted to announce that 36 King's Bruton athletes qualified for the Somerset Schools Championships on Saturday held at the Yeovil Track!

In warm, perfect conditions our athletes surpassed themselves and achieved some superb performances. The first ever Junior Girls' 300m was run as a new event and to our delight King's scooped 1st and 2nd. Lily was awarded a trophy for achieving a Championship best performance and Anya who had already achieved a 3rd in the 1500m picked up her second certificate for 2nd place.

Besides Lily being awarded County Champion, King’s achieved a notable four other County Champions: Isaac who ran an impressive 12.08 in the Junior Boys' Hurdles, Millie who threw a county standard 10.19 in the Junior Girls' Shot, Rian in the Inter Boys' Discus and Esther won the Senior Girls' Triple Jump.

Just missing out but achieving well deserved 2nd places and 3rd places were: Toby who came 2nd in the Inter Boys' Shot, Esther who came 2nd in the Senior Girls' High Jump, Pandy who came 2nd in the Inter Girls' 200m & 3rd in the Inter Girls' Discus, Matt who came 2nd in the Inter Boys' Hurdles and 400m, Millie who came 3rd in the Junior Girls' Discus, Harriet who came 2nd in the Inter Girls' 300m, Kitty who came 3rd in the Junior Girls' High Jump with a personal best performance of 1.55m, Henry who came 3rd in the Senior Boys' Triple Jump and Lily who came 3rd in the Junior Girls' 200m.

We now keep our fingers crossed to see who is selected to represent Somerset at the South West Championships in Exeter next Saturday! An album of photos from the event can be seen below. Well done to everyone who competed.
