Wellington School Athlete Heads for the European Championships

19 Jul 2018

A Wellington School athlete is achieving astounding success and breaking records!

Decathlete Jack Turner competed in the England Champs (U18) decathlon. He won the event but more importantly he got the British Standard for the European Championships in Hungary on the 5-8th July. Team GB requires a massive 6900 points and Jack got 7034, knocking Daley Thompson into 3rd place in the all time rankings list and 1 point behind the British record of 7035!

Amazing performance Jack – we look forward to hearing the outcome of the GB selection!
