Great results for Balcarras at District Cross Country
Congratulations to all of the runners who competed in the annual District Cheltenham Cross County held at Ashbury Manor on Friday 9th October. Over 70 students competed for the school in an afternoon that started in glorious sunshine but finished for those in the final two races in monsoon rains!!
Special individual congratulations to Rosie (Yr 11) who won the Inter Girls race and Patrick (Yr 12) who won the Senior Boys race. Also, Matilda (Yr 8) who finished second in the Junior Girls, Otto (Yr 8) and Charlie (Yr 8) who finished second and third in the Junior Boys, Noah (Yr 11) who finished second in the Inter Boys and finally Lockie (Yr 12) who finished third in the Senior Boys race.
As well as the fantastic individual results Balcarras once again dominated the district team events winning 4 of the eight team competitions, finishing second in one, and third and fourth in two more out of the 12 district team competing!!
Well done to all of those in the four winning teams, Inter Girls, Junior Boys, Inter Boys and Senior Boys.
Good luck also to those students who finished in the top 12 of each race as they will now be going on to represent the Cheltenham District in the Gloucestershire County round later in the term.
