Sports Science It seems like a long time ago that we survived the Autumn Term and celebrated with the Eaton Games. The Upper Sixth outdid themselves and dressed up their mixed hockey team as characters from the Nativity! An outstanding effort by all resulted in a great tournament commemorating Marc and Cathy Eaton’s founding of academic PE at Churcher’s. We also were very fortunate to be visited by Fiona Pocock, an Old Churcherian and ex-England Rugby player and Susannah Townsend, who represented England as a Hockey
player. Our Fourth Year teams and Sports Scientists were able to hear about professional training and the road Fiona and Susannah had taken to elite sport. Then, sadly, in the Spring Term we moved to remote learning due to Covid-19 and our various summer trips and plans were cancelled. The results were very good and I commend our Fifth Years and Upper Sixth who had to cope with a lot of changes and cancellations. Mrs L Snowball
