Athletics Information
As a traditional sport, Athletics
understandably occupies a healthy share of sports curriculum time.
Alongside cricket, Athletics is a popular summer sport. With a range of
facilities available to pupils, Red House has an enviable record of
team and individual success. Individual athletes regularly achieve
distinction at regional and national levels.
Aided
by experienced sports teachers, pupils are encouraged to develop skills
in their particular event and demonstrate such talents at athletics
meets.
During
the summer term, pupils compete in regular athletics meets against
other local schools. Red House also has close links to local athletics
clubs. Red House partakes in many track and field events such as 100m
to 1500m races, hurdles, javelin, shot put, long jump, high jump and
discus.
Red House encourages individuals to grow socially and work as part of a team.
