SEAA Inter-Counties U15/U17 Championships
Thank you to all the Athletes and Team Managers who turned out at Oxford to represent Middlesex at the last Inter-counties meeting of the season. Highlights included Gold for Zayn Azabdaftery (Harrow) U15 Boys 100m, Silver medals for Sam Brown (LH) U15B 300m, Lewis Sorhaindo (Harrow) U15B Triple Jump, Alana Thomas (Harrow) U15 Girls Discus, Remy Weinbrecht (Highgate) U17 Men Long Jump and Bronzes for Hebe Evans (Hillingdon) U15 Girls 200m, Alana Thomas (Harrow) U15 Girl Shot Put, Verrel Charles (BFT) U17 Men 100m, Sol Inglis (TVH) U17 Men 400m, Kieran Bouwmeester-Reid (St Marys) U17 Men High Jump and Coumba sarr (St Marys) U17 Women Discus.
U15 Girl Team Manager Norma Grimsey sent the following report: “It was a great occasion at Horspath, blessed with excellent weather and it was pleasing to see 12 counties participating after a reduced match last year due the effects of the pandemic. The Middlesex U15 Girls team performed well, finishing in a respectable 6th place. Initially we had all events covered, but unfortunately three late withdrawals weakened the team. It has been rare for us to experience late withdrawals in the past, so hopefully this was just a bad year.
We had no individual event winners and again this is unusual, our best performance being 2nd place in Discus. That said, our athletes performed with great determination and we were rewarded with two PBs and an equalled PB.
On general points, it is a very long day and we were still trying to finish our Triple Jump after 6pm when most people had long since left. Maybe it would be possible to use both pits simultaneously to speed up the horizontal jumps. On another point, it was obvious that car parking had become a serious problem on the day and so maybe it would be possible for the organisers to issue instructions in advance that we could
send to parents. Last but not least, my thanks go to Clyde Gordon and Alima Ballerina for all their
help and support throughout the day.”
