which they took well. Both are good prospects for the future, and since next year all but one of the senior first team return, the club's future at that level looks encouraging. The U15 team also entered the Yorkshire and Humberside Championships, but did not fare as well as was hoped. However, there is potential, and with practice they should improve. The Senior House Matches were unseeded this year, and so the two main contenders, Rise and School House, met in the semi-final, with Rise winning 4—I. The final was therefore a formality, in which Rise retained the Water Polo Cup, beating Dronfield 4—o. School House beat Temple 4—o to win the Junior Competition. Finally we must thank Mr. Owen-Barnett, our coach, whose hard work has been so invaluable to the club at all age group levels. M.J.T.

TABLE TENNIS As there was no local schools league available in this age group, the under 19 team was once again entered in the 6th division of the York and District Adult League. 18 of the 22 matched played were won. School matches were not very numerous. There were two hard fought encounters with Moor Grange and Allerton Grange in Leeds, both of which were drawn, and a convincing win against Bradford Grammar School. The team won the North Yorkshire Knockout Competition, and as a result represented the county in the area finals in January, where they were eliminated from the national competition. The following represented the School in matches at this level: M. Blackburn (Captain), H. Pease, M. Raheem and S. Dixon. The under 16 team took part in a local schools competition and won all their matches except those against Knavesmire School, finishing runners up in the league. They also finished runners up in the North Yorkshire Knockout Competition, losing in the final to Stokesley School. The team was chosen from T. Blackburn (Captain), P. Moayyedi, R. Kirby, S. Woollons and D. Williamson. P.L.H. 113
