A fantastic first week back for our sports teams!

News - Nov 13

What a fantastic first week back after half term for Colyton sport! A brilliant week of performances, teamwork and achievements across a range of competitions.

Cross Country: Our U19 boys finished an excellent 4th at the South West round of the English Schools Cross Country Cup, just two points short of National Final qualification. Oscar P led the team home in 4th place, followed by George H (12th), Ben P (21st) and Yossi M (28th). Brilliant effort, boys!

Football: Our U13 girls secured a convincing 5-0 away win against Cranbrook School in Round 2 of the National Cup. Goals from Rae (2), Minnie, Winnie and Nala secured their place in Round 3, with Minnie named Player of the Match. Well done, girls!

Table Tennis: A fantastic clean sweep at the Devon Secondary Schools Team Championships, with all three teams – U13, U16 and U19 – crowned Devon Champions! All three will now represent Devon at the Zone Championships in February. Outstanding achievement!

Netball: Our U19 girls showed great resilience at the County Netball Tournament, improving throughout a challenging day and pushing Blundell’s close in a competitive fixture. Plenty of valuable experience to take forward as they prepare for their next SNS fixture against Millfield on Monday.

Hockey: Huge congratulations to our U14 girls, who were crowned champions in the Devon State School Hockey Fixture after a sensational 16-0 victory over Kings! Captain Ellie led the scoring with five goals, supported by Sally (4), Doon (3), Ottilie (2), Nelly and Winnie. Ellie was also named Player of the Match. What a performance!

A huge well done to all our teams and everyone involved. A brilliant start to the second half of term – we can't wait to see what comes next!
