The Swimming Team has had a very good year, with success in a number of competitions. The Junior and Senior Age Groups were certainly thrown in at the deep end! Their first competition was the North West Secondary Team Championships, held in Liverpool, to try and qualify for the English Schools National Relays Competition. The Junior Age Group just missed out on qualification, making the reserve list this year. There was once again a number of inter-school fixtures, with a win against the Boys’ Division being a highlight for many of the girls. Outside of these fixtures, the squad produced a range of good performances in other competitions across the age groups. In November, an U15 and Senior Team travelled to Stonyhurst College for the prestigious John Parry Relays. The Senior Team finished 3rd place in the freestyle relay, with the U15 Team finishing 1st in both the medley and freestyle relays. Three teams also competed in the Bolton Town Swimming Championships. The Intermediate Team finished 2nd in their competition, with an individual win for Katherine Baker in the 50m backstroke. The Senior Team had a very close competition with Canon Slade that resulted in a tie for points and both schools sharing the title. Niamh Knowles and Tara Wallis helped the cause with individual wins in their respective events. The Junior Team did exceptionally well winning both the freestyle and medley relays. There were also individual wins for Amy Doyle and Elly Fraser. This resulted in them winning overall and becoming the Town Champions. As a result of their success the Junior Team were asked to represent Bolton in the Greater Manchester School Games in March. The four girls selected represented the borough of Bolton and finished joint second with Stockport. The swimmers have also celebrated a number of individual successes this season. Elly Fraser was selected from her ASA ranking to represent the North West in the English Schools InterDivisional Competition in March. We have also had a number of swimmers competing in County Championships with their clubs outside of school. Elly Fraser became County Champion in the 100m and 200m breaststroke in the Under 14 Age Group and Lucy Dixon in the 400m Individual Medley, 100m and 200m breaststroke in the Under 12 Age Group.

SALFORD 100s
In November 2016, twelve Year 7 girls competed in the Salford 100s Lifesaving competition at Westhoughton. The competition is steeped in history and this year had 62 girls participating from schools in the Bolton area. All of the girls performed the lifesaving tests successfully but a special mention to Lucy Dixon, who was the overall winner on the day.

The numbers of girls attending lunchtime sessions for rounders this year simply exploded, with over 170 girls attending clubs throughout the summer term from Years 7-10. The poor weather, however, played a part in seeing a number of league fixtures cancelled which was disappointing but unavoidable. The Year 10s were undefeated throughout the term in their league matches, winning all 7 games played. The Year 9 team once again benefited from England rounders coaches, with regular sessions after school on Wednesdays. It was great to see so much enthusiasm for the ‘flat bat’ game from all ages.

Edinburgh Netball and Lacrosse Trip
The season began well with an exciting trip to Edinburgh with the Senior Lacrosse and Netball Squads. Over the course of the weekend, the girls played matches against Stonyhurst College, Edinburgh Thistle Lacrosse Club and Fettes College, with two convincing victories for this year’s strong Netball team. They also had the opportunity to discover and explore Scotland’s historic capital city and university buildings. As always, a meal at The Hard Rock Café was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

NETBALL 7G, 7D, 8C, 9B, 10B Being joint netball captains this season has been a privilege, which has been made even better by our dedicated and enthusiastic team. Most of us have been together since Year 7 and it has been very special to witness us all grow, not only as individual players, but as a team. We’d especially like to thank Mrs Heatherington who has been a dedicated coach and huge support to us over that past season. The senior netball team have had a successful season, winning a large proportion of our games convincingly. This is due to our hard work and communication as a team. I know that we speak on behalf of the whole team when we say that school netball has been an important part of our lives for the past 7 years, and it is something that we will all hugely miss once we leave. Alex Duxbury & Georgina Owen
Lacrosse Captains Report
This year we have thoroughly enjoyed being lacrosse co-captains. It has been a privilege in our final year at school to be able to lead such an enthusiastic and talented squad. We will fondly remember the many trips we have been on such as the Edinburgh tour and the yearly trip to National Schools. We are very grateful for our teammates’ hard work and dedication as without this we would not have had such a successful season. We would like to especially thank Miss Donaghy for being our coach throughout our school career and for making school lacrosse so fun and enjoyable. Molly Dick & Louisa Brophy
Swimming Captain’s Report
Serving for a second year as the swimming captain has been a great honour and an amazing experience. I am so thankful to my team for their unwavering enthusiasm and to Mrs Duddle for entrusting me with this responsibility for two years. What was so special about this experience was the amount of support from every member which made me want to push myself as a swimmer and their captain. All of this has resulted in competition success this year. From when I first joined the club in Year 7, the swimming captain has always been someone I have looked up to as a role model and being captain has enabled me to assume that position. The sport as a whole has been something I’ve enjoyed doing so being captain has meant a lot to me. The opportunity given to me has made a significant impact on my life and I would like to thank Mrs Duddle again for giving me the chance to represent the school as their swimming captain.

The weather wasn’t kind to us last summer and out of three inter-school fixtures scheduled, we were only able to host one which was our throwing competition against Canon Slade. Nevertheless, a committed core of girls from each year group trained hard throughout the season and were rewarded with some outstanding Personal Best Performances. Particular mention to the Year 9 Athletics team who were runners-up at their Bolton Town Championships, with some excellent individual performances. Lydia Lycholat was runner-up in the 100m Final and was a member of the relay team who were also runners up, which included Imane Nagi, Jess Price and Beth Taylor. The Year 10 team also did very well to finish in a very creditable 3rd position overall. At the Junior competition, the Year 7 team finished in 4th place whilst the Year 8 were worthy runners up in their event. Congratulations to Ella Wilson on becoming town High Jump champion. In addition to athletics, a thriving run for fun club took place on the running track on Thursdays and Fridays.

Year 7 Cross Country Team
The Tennis Squad have competed in the local round of the AEGON Teams Tennis tournament this season, with some close matches in both age groups. The Under 15 team competed against Withington and Manchester High School for girls. The girls were defeated by Manchester High, but in the match against Withington the scores were even after the singles and doubles games. A championship shootout then had to be played with a tie-break of 10 points. The girls competed well and after a number of nail biting shots, we unfortunately lost by 10 points to 7. This meant we finished third in the group and, in order to progress through to the semi-final stages of the competition, the girls needed to be in the top two positions in the group. The Under 13 team played their matches against Kirkham Grammar, Withington and Manchester High. All girls who represented the school in this age group played some excellent tennis in their games. The girls won against Kirkham by an impressive 5 sets to 1, were defeated against an extremely strong Withington School, and in their final match against Manchester High won three sets of singles meaning that we needed one set of the doubles to win the match. Eve Gould and Lizzy Harkness were successful winning by 6 games to 4. Therefore we were overall winners by 4 sets to 1. We were then waiting for other matches to be played to confirm whether we would go through to the Semi-finals, needing to top the group. Unfortunately we finished in third position and therefore didn’t have enough points to progress to the next stage of the competition. Girls in Year 8, 9 and 10 age groups played in friendly doubles matches against Kirkham Grammar giving wins for the Year 8 and 9 teams. After totalling all of the games, we were overall winners by 42 games to 30. Friendly matches against Bury Grammar and Westholme School were unfortunately cancelled due to weather. Well done to all of the girls for their efforts and commitments throughout the season!
