Abingdon News No. 65

www.abingdon.org.uk 21 Abingdon Sport On 29 November, the junior, intermediate and senior team travelled to Warwick to compete at the annual ‘Warwick 100s’ gala. The junior team, many of whom were competing for the 1st time, put in a great effort, while the intermediate team managed to claim 2nd place. Our U18 team shone, placing 1st comfortably with many impressive swims. Overall, the school placed 2nd across all age groups and only 5 points behind 1st. Congratulations to all that competed, with special mentions to Ethan, Ralph and Can winning individual events at the gala. Swimming Our Badminton players have shown a huge amount of skill this term, playing some high quality matches with determination and strong performances. They have fared well against other schools in competitive fixtures; progressed to the South West Regional round 4 in the Victor Sports national tournament; and narrowly missed out in winning the trophy to Sankey’s academy in our inaugural 8 team tournament. We are especially proud of Gordon and Thierry who are now U19 open doubles champions for the region. Badminton
