On 22nd November 2009, a number of members of DDSC attended the regional heat of the 2009/10 Schools Biathlon at Solihull, representing Westacre, Witton, and Droitwich High.
There was significant success, with many of our club members achieving PBs in the pool (see link below), and also running extremely well on the track, many for the first time.
Sam Cave, Anthony Redfern, and Sophie Groves, all finished 1st in their age groups and have qualified to attend the National Championship in Aldershot in March 2010. Automatic qualification for the Nationals includes those who finished in first place, but as all times and points are collated from the various regional heats, others will also qualify, potentially including additional qualifiers from amongst our club members.
Everyone showed great team spirit and were rewarded with very strong performances in the pool, resulting in medals for Best Swim in their age group for Ruth Hadley, Sam Cave, Anthony Redfern and Adam McConnell.
Trophies for top 6 places in each age group were also awarded to Lauren Rogers (6th), Ruth (5th), Sam Heywood (4th), Tim Quiney (5th) & Adam McConnell (2nd).
Many congratulations to everyone who participated and to those parents who braved the awful weather.
