The King’s Athletics team enjoyed a fantastic day in the sunshine at the Julie Rose Stadium in Ashford on Friday 13th June.

Athletics is an individual sport, and every one of our pupils should feel extremely proud of their achievements. We witnessed a plethora of P.B’s throughout the day.

The purpose of this regional event is to select athletes for the Kent Squad, who will go on to compete at the IAPS National Championships at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham on Tuesday 2nd July. We are thrilled to announce that the following King’s pupils have been selected to represent Kent:
