Sportshall Athletics District Competition
As soon as the Christmas decorations are put away our Sportshall athletic teams restart their healthy balanced diets
and return to training on a Wednesday night knowing that the District Championship title is up for grabs once again.
This year’s boys event saw the closest competition amongst the schools with the Year 8 boys missing out on the title
by a handful of points, whilst the Year 7 boys were victorious and enjoyed a nail biting win over the other Tamworth
Secondary Schools.
Year 8 girls are the reigning County Champions so had a lot to prove in their competition. The whole squad were focused
on maximising their performances to make it through as the District Champions once again and onto the County Finals
to retain their title and silverware. They didn’t need to worry …. they smashed it, beating the next highest scoring school
by almost 20pts!
The Year 7 girls followed in their fast footsteps, with all of the squad performing to their maximium they won the District
title and with that to become the third Tamworth Sportshall athletics team to come from The Wilnecote School. A huge
well done to all members of the Sportshall Squads – this is a really impressive accomplishment.
