The KS3 boys competition took place on Tues 26th Jan. 8 students from Y7 and 8 students from Y8 were selected to represent their respective year groups in a range of track and field events.
Results table below:
As you can see from the results, our Y7 boys managed to secure the North Birmingham title by edging local schools Bishop Vesey and NBA into joint second place. Sadly, our Y8 boys team fell one place short of this and just missed out reaching top spot by 4 points. All was looking good for a double victory on the evening, until the Y8 relay team dropped the baton in the very last race of the competition! The mistake proved to be very costly and prevented the team from having another shot at retaining the 'Overall Birmingham Schools Winners title' that they achieved last year!
The KS3 girls competition took place on Thurs 28th Jan. Once again, 8 students from Y7 and 8 students from Y8 were selected to represent their respective year groups in a range of track and field events. Both teams performed superbly during the competition and came out on top amongst the other competing schools.
Results table below:
As you can see from the results, our Y7 girls finished in first place ahead of Highclare - 2nd and John Willmott - 3rd. Our Y8 girls team, also 'overall Birmingham Schools Winners' from last year, absolutely smashed the points scoring by achieving the highest team tally and winning margin of the week!
Congratulations to all of the teams and the students that took part! 3 winners and 1 runner's up from Arthur Terry was a fantastic achievement for the week. Our 3 winning teams now progress into the L3 Birmingham Schools Sportshall Athletics Finals taking place on Thurs 11th Feb at the Doug Ellic Sports Centre - (BCU campus in Perry Barr).
