WASPS Athletics

Our final Wolverhampton competition of the year arrived with a bang. Perfect weather for the occasion and the perfect children to take part! With a variety of events ranging from long-distance races and sprints to the long jump, every event was filled.

Our children made it through to five finals: Ryley in the 400 metres, Shakeree in the long jump and 150 metres, Jess in the obstacle race, and Tomiwa in the 80 metres.

I'm so proud to be able to say that Edward the Elder came away with three silver medals! Speedy Shakeree won silver in the 150-metre sprint and the long jump, while talented Tomiwa took silver in the 80-metre sprint!

And the icing on the cake: our boys took second place in the relay, taking home yet another silver medal! 🏅

A massive well done to all the children involved: Shakeree, Ryley, Finley, Tomiwa, Jess, Neve, Shareen and Gurasees. They were all absolutely amazing athletes and showed great support for their friends when not competing.

Well done, Team Edward!
