Boys Reach National Biathlon Finals Again
Saturday, 01 November 2008
Bolton School Boys' Division Junior School entered twelve pupils in the North-West Qualifier for the Schools' Modern Biathlon Championships.
In very cold conditions, the boys swam and ran extremely well. The Year 6 team finished in first place thanks to finishes of 4th and 5th respectively for Thomas Haslam and Cass Kellar. This qualifies them for the national Year 6 final which will take place in Bath at the end of February 2009.
The Year 5 team finished in 2nd place after George Lilleywhite came in 4th and David Price came in 5th.
