West Yorkshire Schools Cross Country Championships 2018

The Championships were once again held at GSAL, on a cold, wet day, and conditions underfoot were very testing.

The Bradford team was quite successful, winning three of the eight team races, and Bingley juniors made a fine contribution to that success.

There were excellent individual wins for Rebecca and Alex Flaherty, in the Year 7 Girls and Junior Boys races respectively, Oliver Peace continued his great form in 5th place in the Junior Boys, Emily Field was a splendid 2nd in the Intermediate Girls, and in the Senior Boys Reuben Mantle was 3rd,  and James Askew 5th.

Alex, Emily, Reuben, Oliver and James will represent West Yorkshire at the English Schools Championships, to be held at Temple Newsam on Saturday, 17 March, and Rebecca will represent West Yorkshire at the Year 7 National Championships at Prestwold Hall, in Leicestershire, on Saturday 24 March.

In addition Eliza Findlay, running for Calderdale, is a reserve for the Senior Girls.
