On Friday 22nd June Green Park Athletics Team entered the Sefton Mini-Games Athletics Tournament at Litherland Sports Park.

A team of 12 children took part in a full days worth of running, jumping and throwing events, including heats and finals in a lot of cases.

All of the children tried their best and performed really well for the team. At the end of the afternoon, it was rewarding to find out we had finished 6th out of 17 schools. Wow!
Well done to the whole team who were..

Boys = John, Oliver, David, Tom P, Michael H and Jack from Y6.
Girls = Lauren, Emma, Anna, from Y6 and Beth, Sian and Melissa from Y5.

As well as the fantastic team achievement, there were some fine individual performances which I should highlight…

John Cain - Sefton’s 100m Champion
David Lewis - Sefton’s Vertical Jump Champion
Girls’ Relay Team (Emma, Lauren, Sian and Beth)- Sefton’s 100m Relay Champions
Beth Ryan - Runner Up in 75m Final
Anna Forde - Runner Up in 600m Final

Well done to everybody who took part. It was a fantastic day and a real achievement to get into the team as lots of children tried out and it was a very difficult job to choose the squad.
Thanks very much to parents for assisting with transport and supporting during the day.
