Royal Masonic Girls athlete Amelia Daley jumped her way into the record books at the recent Hertfordshire County Athletics Championships.
Taking part in the triple jump, Amelia jumped a distance of 11.27m, beating the record of 11.00m exactly which had stood for the last 19 years. Amelia’s personal best is actually some way better than this weekend’s jump, standing at 11.78m which means she is currently ranked 5th in the country. She has also been selected for the Schools National Finals in July!
Lucy Cooper, RMS Director of Sport, said: “The whole school is hugely proud of Amelia’s achievements – to beat a record that has stood for so long is incredibly impressive, and we look forward to seeing what Amelia achieves next.”
