STANFIELD BRINGS BACK A BOUNTY OF MEDALS FROM BIATHLON TOURNAMENT

21 May 2013

Four girls at Stanfield have excelled at the regional AJIS Athletics Tournament at Robin Park, Wigan, which took place on the 5th February earlier this term.
Despite 25 schools competing, Lilly-Ann Grayson managed to break the existing sprinting record to claim her gold medal. Lilly also competed alongside Molly Morris where they bagged a bronze in the six-lap relay together.
Adelina Gram, 5T, came second in the vertical jump, and Maria Primuk competed at the top of her game to claim bronze in the triple jump.
The tournament, organised by Westholme School, has only been running for two years and is for Y5 and 6 boys and girls. Stanfield hopes to compete annually and uphold the girls’ winning streak, especially after such a high precedent was set this year.
