INDIVIDUAL SPORTING SUCCESS

Go Kart Season British Champion

Oliver in Fourth Year has had a hugely successful 2019 go-karting season ending as British Champion in three separate racing categories: l 2019 Motorsport UK British Champion l 2019 Kartmasters Gran Prix Winner l 2019 Iame EuroSeries Vice Champion

Ollie also raced in the Iame World Finals which is an eight day race meet in LeMans. He qualified Pole out of 120 drivers, and did very well in his heats winning 3 out of five but unfortunately engine trouble in the final race prevented his dream of world champion. This has been a fantastic season for Ollie and we look forward to watching him progress next year.

Life in the Fast Lane

Grand Prix Win for Ollie

Caterham driver Ollie G (Fourth Year) enjoyed a successful couple of months at the wheel. Ollie raced in two main Championships – The European Series and The British Championships and travelled as far afield as Wackersdorf in Germany, Salbris in France and the delights of the Lake District in Cumbria across the summer.

Congratulations Ollie on a very mature performance.

n the European Series Ollie had

Ia great four days in Germany at the start of the summer holiday winning both races. This put him in the lead of the European

Series going into the final round in France. Alas the race didn’t go as planned, after three days of testing and racing in the heats ,

Ollie was to line up the first Final from third on the grid (38 drivers) knowing that two top three finishes would be enough to give him the overall Championship. However, a catastrophic error by Ollie’s mechanic on the Grid when they were lining up for the first final meant he was punished by having to start from the pit lane flat last instead of third. Essentially this meant his chances of overall victory were taken away. Doing his best to fight through to success Ollie managed to move up to thirteen place meaning he had to win the last final to have any chance. In this last final he managed to drive from thirteenth to fifth place but this was not enough, so a great disappointment but a fine show of resilience in a difficult situation. Ollie finished the Euro Series as Vice Champion so a good result but not where he had wanted to be.

In the British Championship Ollie is currently leading with two more rounds to go. He has won over the summer in Scotland and Wigan giving him a slender lead.

British Kartmasters GP is the largest one off race in the Europe attracting over 300 drivers competing during five days with previous winners including Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button amongst others.

Ollie came first winning the 2019 Grand Prix securing a prize which included a fully paid entry to the World Finals in LeMans!

CHESS SUCCESS for BENJAMIN

At the beginning of October Benjamin (First Year) took part in the All Surrey Chess Championships and won four out of five matches, and was the runner up in the Under 12 section.

Benjamin was also declared the Hundred (Borough) Champion for the Borough which covers the area from Norbury to Coulsdon, and Morden to Addington.

The Summer Adventures of

WATERPOLO AND NETBALL

LUCY BULLOCK (UNDER 15) HAD THE MOST INCREDIBLE SUMMER OF SPORT, ACHIEVING FANTASTIC SUCCESS IN BOTH NETBALL AND WATERPOLO.

Lucy was selected to represent the Surrey Storm U15 team at the highly prestigious England Netball Performance Competition at the University of Wolverhampton back in August. All ten Superleague Netball franchises were represented at the competition, meaning that Lucy was able to test herself against the best players of her age in the country. The Surrey Storm team had an outstanding tournament, finishing as runners-up to Manchester Thunder.

Lucy has now been selected for the Surrey Storm South U17 Academy, which is a remarkable achievement.

Amongst of these netballing achievements, requiring huge commitment and dedication, Lucy has also found the time (and the talent!) to represent the England U19 Water Polo team, competing at the North Sea Cup the beginning of September.

We are very proud of Lucy and we are very excited for what her sporting future holds.
