Senior Girls Qualify for Nationals

On Saturday 12 November, five of our cross country teams competed at the Regionals of the English Schools Cross Country Cup.  Our region includes the might of Essex, one of the largest and strongest running counties in the country.   

There were some great individual performances with three of our athletes recording top ten finishes: 

Romilly (Year 8) 5^th in the Junior Girls 
Angus (Year 10) 6^th in the Inter Boys  
Amy (Year 13) 6^th in the Senior Girls 

Our overall team results were as follows: 

Junior Girls – 6^th  
Junior Boys – 11^th  
Inter Girls – 5^th  
Inter Boys – 10^th  
Senior Girls – 3^rd  

The highlight of the day was the final race where our Senior Girls team finished 3^rd and in doing so qualified for the National Finals, due to be held in Leeds on Saturday 3 December 2022. 

A fantastic effort and achievement from Year 13’s Amy, Year 12’s Isobel and from Year 11’s Eloise,  Ellen and Phoebe. 

Amy has been in a qualifying team for Nationals every year of her senior school career, setting her own individual piece of Woodbridge School history! (This ignores 2020 of course, where the event was cancelled due to Covid). 

Congratulations to every athlete, thank you to parents and staff for their support, and the very best of luck to the Senior Girls!
