The TISAC athletics began on a wet Monday
with myself, Mr Davenport and Mr Mark travelling to the Thai-Japanese stadium
in Din Daeng with the U13 and U15 teams. The teams were up against stiff
competition in the form of; Charter, Regents, TRAILL,
Bromsgrove, St Andrews Dusit, St Andrews 107, Bangkok Christian, St Stephens
and Ascot.
Overall I am proud of how both teams
handled themselves on the day as everyone gave 100% and showed great teamwork
and camaraderie which is all I can ask for. With the U15 Boys and Girls they
had to fill in events at the last minute, which is an example of great courage,
and shows an ability to step out of their comfort zone, a skill which will hold
them in great stead for future challenges. The U13 Boys and Girls showed great
potential, and as a lot of them will still be in the age group next year this
gives me great hope for an even better display at next year's TISAC athletics.
On to Tuesday and thankfully the sun
was shining again for the U9 and U11 event whereby it was now Mrs Hodges turn
with myself again to travel up to the Thai-Japanese stadium for the second day
of athletics. Our competition was composed of; St Andrews Dusit, St Andrews
Sathorn, St Andrews 107, Bangkok Christian, Regents, Charter, Bromsgrove, Ascot
and St Stephens.
After two days of high quality
athletics I can proudly announce that the Heathfield U9 athletics team became
the TISAC Athletics champions. This is an incredible achievement one that breeds
a culture of success and is a result that should spur our teams on for the rest
of the sporting year.
