FMAT Games 2024

Teams from all Academies competed in track and field events, and it was great to see that every Academy had full teams this year. The #ambition and #dedication shown by staff to prepare the teams and students was to be commended.

What was of a particular note this year, was that students from opposing academies are starting to recognise, chat and support each other in their events. This is really demonstrating the power of sport, and collaboration.

“There was a real ‘friendly rivalry’, and students’ efforts and behaviour were exemplary”.

Thanks must go to all the staff who helped to prepare the students for this event, staff officiating at the event and particularly Dave Trowman for running the meeting on the day.
