sports programme
From the Director of Sport
As the Lent term comes to an end, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all
the pupils, staff and parents for their efforts and commitment throughout what can
only be described as a very busy term. There have been some outstanding fixtures,
results and achievements in all sports.
As Director of Sport I am very aware of the amount of work involved in all aspects
of the school’s sporting programme and it would only be appropriate at this time to
also thank all those involved behind the scenes. Everyone from administration staff,
grounds staff and catering, to name but a few, deserve praise as we would not be
able to operate as successfully as we do without their input.
I do hope that you enjoy your afternoon and may I also take this opportunity to
wish everyone a Happy Easter.
A special mention and congratulations to the following:
The golf team managed to beat the BB&O County side, one of the best junior
county sides in the UK, last weekend and later in the week were victorious in the
Gerald Micklem Trophy.
Last Friday, the U19 boys' and girls' swimming relay teams competed in the HMC
National Championships at the Aquatic Centre at the Olympic Park in London.
Our very young U19 girls' freestyle team of Imogen Livingstone, Neve McDonald,
Laura Brown and Annabelle Turner came 9th out of 40 schools.
The 1st XII lacrosse team ended their season on a high note and a winning streak
beating St Swithun's 9-4. Alexia Taee has also been selected to play for the London
South Academy U15B team at the Girls' Regional Tournament in Coventry over the
Easter break.
Matt Williams was named Rugby World Young Player of the Month last week. An
outstanding national achievement.
Wellington's 3rd XI football team put in a dominant display against St John's on
Saturday. Ably captained by Sam Beard, Wellington emerged as well deserved 3-0
winners.
The U15A netball team put up a tremendous fight v Marlborough. For the first
three quarters, the two teams couldn't be separated with play going goal for goal.
Wellington won the final quarter 12-2, meaning an overall 31-19 victory. The U15Cs
also responded positively to a similar challenge emerging winners 24-19.
The 3rd XI boys' hockey team had put in some excellent work in training in the
lead up to Saturday's game against St Edward's which resulted in a fantastic team
performance and a 2-0 win.
An excellent interschool ski competition was had by all members of the team
last week. There were some excellent individual run times by Toby Bryer, Jono
Foster, Lottie Boyd and James Thorne. There was excellent and consistent racing
from Paolo Rossi who successfully completed all his runs. Will Beardmore also
completed all of his runs and secured an excellent top 20 finish. Jono Foster and
Lottie Boyd both finished 6th in their slalom races. All skiers should be very proud
of their performance.
An outstanding week for the Yearlings 7s squad remarkably winning the QE Barnet
7s, the Surrey 7s and the Reigate 7s, three major tournaments in the space of 8
days. The U16s also reached the All England 7s final yesterday beating rivals Millfield
twice on the way but losing narrowly in the final to Brighton.
Teams of the Week
The U14A and 1st VII netball teams had a long journey up to Merseyside to
compete in the National Schools Finals. Both teams were placed in a pool of 9 and
were already placed in the top 18 in the country for making it to Nationals. The 1st
VII had some tough games including a nail biting draw against the overall finalists
Hartpury College. A great team performance from all 10 players saw some brilliant
wins in their pool as well as tightly contested games that put the spectators on the
"When considering the stature of an athlete or for that matter any person, I set great store in certain qualities which I believe to be essential in addition to skill. They are that the
person conducts his or her life with dignity, with integrity, courage, and perhaps most of all, with modesty. These
virtues are totally compatible with pride, ambition, and competitiveness."
- Don Bradman
edge of their seats throughout. They finished 3rd in their group and 7th overall in
the country, a massive achievement and something they should be proud of. The
U14As had only lost one game in the 8 group games as they entered their semi-final
to Millfield. A tough game which left Millfield going through to the final, then led to
the 3rd place play off versus Ripon High. The girls were calm and composed and
went on to rightfully win their bronze medal comfortably, putting them 3rd in the
country overall.
Congratulations to the College squash team who won the National Schools Squash
Trophy Competition last week in Manchester. The team consisting of: Captain
Maxim Smith, Chris Membrey, Ben Curran, Sam Corbett, Louis Lyne and Luke
Hambly beat Bedford School in the final. A fantastic achievement and a fine reward
for a long and demanding season. Special thanks to the coach, Steve Meads, for
getting them to the finals!

Medical Cover for Sporting Eventsduring the Lent Term
Wellington College Health Centre is situated next to Apsley House, close to the Monro Pavilion. During Saturday matches there are two nurses on duty, based in the Health Centre.
‘Lifesigns Group’ provide the College with up to 6 paramedics, who will be based around the various pitches and sports venues. The paramedics can be identified easily as they usually wear green. They are the first point of contact for any pupil who has been injured and the paramedic decides whether to treat the injury pitch-side, take the pupil to the Health Centre for treatment or direct the pupil and a helper to the Health Centre. There is usually a Lifesigns’ ambulance on site to be used to help pupils to the Health Centre when necessary. Most treatment will take place on- site, in the Health Centre. Parents are obviously most welcome to accompany the pupil.
On some occasions if a more serious injury is suspected, the paramedic will ask for a nurse on duty to come directly to the pitch/venue to assess the injured pupil. If necessary, an NHS ambulance will be called directly to the pitch.
The Health Centre remains open after matches have finished for any medical concerns or minor injuries requiring advice. After sport has finished for the day, the nurse on duty exchanges any relevant information with the nursing team at the visiting College.
Sr Bev Gilbert, Nurse in Charge
May we please remind all our visitors that
this is a NO SMOKING campus.

Wellington College is pleased to present its plans to build a new and prestigious Real Tennis Court. With the support of a group of generous OWs and friends who have raised the majority of the funds, it is hoped that the project build will begin this summer.
The new court will be an impressive addition to the spectacular estate of Wellington College. It has been designed to enhance the sports complex, which has been developed over the years since 1867 when the College's rackets court was first built. Wellington has a proud association with racket sports of all types, and there is tremendous support from the Governing Body, and throughout the institution, to add to this heritage with the addition of Real Tennis.
For more information, please contact Development at the Foundation Office or see the display boards in the Health and Fitness Club.
