A. S.SWIMMINGThis year casual swimming at the Sherborne School Sports Centre onFriday evenings has gone from strength to strength, but swimming as a timetabledlesson was greatly curtailed owing to the problems of hiring the Pool during aweekday.This meant that most boys had only four swimming lessons before theSchool Swimming Sports on Thursday, 28th June at the Sports Centre.Unfortunately, owing to the lack of seating accommodation the number ofspectators present had to be limited. None-the-Iess the occasion was a greatsuccess, with School House winning the competition easily and St Dunstan'sfighting off the challenge of the other two Houses to take second place.The full results were as follows:Under 13Breast Stroke: I.

Aldhelm's 36S. A. SHAPLANDThe School Cross-Country Competition was held on a bitterly cold morningat the end of the Winter Term. In spite of the hard frost, which had brought thecompetition close to being postponed, three excellent races were run and somevery creditable times were recorded. .In the Junior race C. Lawrance (S) did well to fight off the challenge of J.Stringfellow (S) with A. Workman (B) and M. King (B) coming third and fourthrespectively. The best placed first year was B. Moss in fifth place. Bede's teamwon the overall Junior section.G. Hurst (B) broke the record for the Intermediate course by almost aminute but he was closely followed by the St Dunstan's duo ofT. Manuel and A.Reynolds. R Curson (A) did well to gain fourth place. In the Intermediate sectionoverall, St. Dunstan's tied for first place with School.The expected battle betweeen J. Parsons (D) and J. Brack (A) did notmaterialise in the Senior race. In fact Parsons, minus one of his running shoes,came home in front ofK. Harvey(S); Brack andL. Hillman (A) taking third andfourth places respectively. The School House team won the Senior section withease.The Overall competition was won by School House quite comfortably, withSt Dunstan's and St Aldhelm's fighting it out for second place - the former justgaining the advantage.Ten boys represented the School at the North Dorset Schools AthleticsAssociation Cross-Country Championships at Sturminster Newton in January.With snow on the ground in some places, and mud ankle-deep in others, the goingwas pretty tough. Our most successful competitors were D . Hole (11 th) and J.Waite (15th) in the first year boys' race and T. Manuel (13th) and G. Hurst( 15 th) in the Intermediate boys' race.S. A.

CARRFOSTER'S SPORTS CLUBThe Swimming Pool at Sherborne School is being well used by Foster'sSchool families on Friday evenings, and we are grateful to Staff and Parents forsupervising these sessions.Unfortunately we have lost nearly all our Squash team this year, and we aretrying to get a team together so thatwe can enter into some competitive Squash inthe coming year.We had some good matches at Leweston last season, and beata strong teamthere by 4 - I. We have a match against Shaftesbury Grammar School shortly,and hope to get off to a good start there with our new team.FUND RAISING BY THE FORMSM.HANNThe Lower Sixth organised a concert by their band "Cold Blood" on theevening of Wednesday, May 23rd in the School Hall.
