Enormous congratulations to William in Prep 5 who did himself and Mylnhurst proud at the ISA National Cross Country Championships 2024/25 on Sunday.
William, aged 10, came an amazing ninth out of 70 runners in the U11s race, held at Mallory Park Circuit in Leicestershire.
The Under 11s boys from Mylnhurst Preparatory School in Ecclesall are officially reigning Midlands champions – a title they have retained for the second year in a row.
Mylnhurst games teacher Crystal Buchanan, who leads the children for cross country, said: “This is a massive achievement. For such a small school as ours, it is huge for our team to come first two years running.
“William has always been a star on the cross country field. He was U9s Sheffield champion last year, and he came second in the ISA National Finals as an under-nine last year.
“The best thing about him is he always does it with a smile.”
