There was a fantastic turnout for the East Riding SSP (West) Secondary Sportshall Athletics Competition held at Cottingham High School earlier this week. Schools brought their top athletes to compete in a range of indoor track and field events. With over 20 teams of boys and girls from across Year 7 & 8 it really was a sight to behold seeing everyone participating with some superb individual performances throughout the event.

A huge thank you to Cottingham High who not only provided the facilities and equipment but also drafted in a team of Young Leaders who collected all the results for each event - without them the competition could not have taken place.

The event came to a close with some dynamic relay races and then it was time for the results to be collated. They are as follows:-
