The ESAA Combined Events and Race-Walking Championships (Under 15, Under 17, Under 19) took place on the 16th-17th September 2023 at Bedford International Stadium.

The ESAA Combined Events Championships are held over two rounds. Athletes enter through selection for their county schools’ team.

BAC’s athlete, Seni Purnell (U15) showed her talents in the multi events with an excellent performance score. Seni achieved the highest pentathlon score by a bottom of the age group U15 girl since a certain GB athlete, Morgan Lake did in 2010.  Morgan Lake went on to become the only Briton to win two individual titles at the World U20 champs which she did at aged 17. In virtually any other year, Seni’s score would have secured her a top 4 finish and an England schools vest. In fact, last year it would have been good enough to win the title.

 

Also a great achievement by the Dorset team securing third spot.
