Team Runnymede

After such a long time without competing, I’ve been able to reflect on my process. A process that would have been very different had it not been for the support I’ve had. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ @runnymedemadrid, my dear school, occupies a very important spot on that list. ⁣ ⁣ #TeamRunnymede

Our High Performance athletes are back on track! 💪

There is no stopping our @Team_Runnymede Judo Senseis from delivering their lessons 💪

Our #TeamRunnymede staff have prepared a series of home training sport-specific video programs to help our athletes stay strong and fit 💪

Beatriz Vicario, #OldRunnymedian & @UniofOxford student, was selected to play #VarsityVolleyball for the 2nd Women's Team. During the match last weekend Beatriz, who had started playing volleyball in Y8 with @Team_Runnymede, & her team beat @Cambridge_Uni's with a score of 3-2.

@Team_Runnymede athlete Alvin Rougeot has achieved the qualifying height required to participate in the Spanish Athletics Championship! Alvin flew over 1,99m in a recent high jump competition & will represent @Team_Runnymede in the most important Athletics competition in Spain!

We're very much looking forward to welcoming back our very own #OldRunnymedian & two time (soon to be three) Paralympian, @DaniCaver to speak to pupils this week. If you're an #OldRunnymedian with a story to inspire & you'd like to come and speak to pupils, please get in touch!

A Treble Volleyball Victory! 🏐 The last two weeks have represented a real high for Team Volleyball with fantastic displays of talent & teamwork in the #Cadete & #Juvenil categories meanwhile Team Volleyball's younger members took part in the ICS Infantil Volleyball Tournament.

#TeamRunnymede skiers are on their way to #SierraNevada for the second training weekend of the season 💪🏼
