Wellington Pupil is all-round Sporting Star

18 Mar 2017

One of Wellington School’s elite sporting pupils has achieved tremendous success.

Olivia Churcher in Year 9 has been selected to play for the South West U15 Rugby squad. This fantastic achievement, especially as she will be playing up a year group.

Olivia is a fabulous all-round sports woman with superb cricketing skills – playing for Devon Cricket as well. She also won the Devon Under 13 Cricketer of the Year at the County’s annual awards ceremony.

“Olivia is a superb sportswoman with an outstanding work ethic. She trains hard, is utterly dedicated and is able to turn her ability to any sport. She is immensely strong and fit and is an excellent example of how our elite sporting programme really delivers results,” commented Steffan Jones, Head of Sport and Wellbeing at Wellington School. “We are immensely proud of Olivia.”
