Polly (Year 10) and Bill (Year 8) are both keen members of the Lewes Athletics Club, attending during the week after school and at weekends,  and their hard work and dedication is gaining results for them.  Polly won Gold for Sussex in multi-events last year and Bill won Bronze at the same meeting.  In 2011 Polly was awarded U13 Female Athlete of the Year by Lewes Athletics Club.

Both Polly and Bill have “Power of 10” profiles which can be viewed on www.thepowerof10.info by entering their name and the Lewes Athletics Club.  The photographs here show them in action. 

They went to Vault Manchester last weekend and Polly was equal 10th  and Bill got the Silver medal for his age group.  On Sunday Bill also played at the 10th Sussex Junior Restricted Badminton Championships and got another second place with the trophy for runner up!  (he said he could have won it if he wasn't so tired from Manchester).

Well done and congratulations to Polly and Bill.
