Athletics
Every child in the School experiences Athletics during the Summer term. We run teams in all age groups with Inter-House and Inter-School fixtures against local State and Preparatory Schools. Our older Athletics extend their competition to Country, Regional and National Events.
We normally average about 25 athletes selected as individuals to represent the South West in the National Preparatory Schools Championships. Our teams regularly reach the final of the English Schools Cup which is open to both State and Private Schools. We have a large number of qualified athletics staff who help on the coaching side.
The facilities on site include a Grass Running Track, Hurdles Straight, Jumping Pits and Throws. Whilst at Millfield Senior School there is an all weather 400 metre track with full facilitation for all events to which we have access.
