Schools East Region Championships, 4th December 2011
With one of our biggest entries at schools for some time we had 19 members representing their schools at this competition and 13 of them have secured places at the Zonal finals in Shrewsbury in January where they will compete against others from the Midlands regions and Wales. Members did particularly well in the Elite groups taking all 4 girls titles available. The total haul of trophies was as follows:
- Winners - Maddison Merritt (U11 Elite), Olivia Watson (U13 Elite), Susanna Badley (U15 Elite) & Chrissie Law (U19 Elite), Under 11 Novice Team from Long Ridings (Sophie Tyrrell, Mia Gray & Erin Wells) and Under 15 Elite team from Cooper Coborn (Susanna Badley, Lucy Phillips, Emma Brereton & Ellie Guy)
- Second place - Faith Everett (U11 Elite), Ramiyah Kendall (U11 Novice)
- Third place - Georgia Tyrrell (U11 Elite), Lucy Phillips (U15 Elite)
There were also some very close misses with Sophie Tyrrell just 0.1 off 3rd place in U11 Novice, Emma Heptinstall just 0.1 behind Sophie in 5th and Lauren Michaels just 0.3 behind Lucy in the U13 Elite. For some this was a first ever competitive experience and for them the best result was that they enjoyed the day and are raring to compete again.
Every competitor achieved 'personal best scores' except, of course, our two first-time competitors - these are noted as such below but will not be recorded elsewhere on this site as such since, in the opinion of all coaches present, panel 2 in particular was marking way too high in general and beating the revised personal best scores would be an insuperable challenge.
