The Crawford Relay was a whirlwind of excitement, energy, and friendly rivalry. As the Houses lined up, each determined to bring home the victory, the air was electric with anticipation, and the sound of cheering filled the School grounds.
As always, Mr Bowsher made his way to the Bell Tower where he rang the famous Cokethorpe bell three times, upon which, a burst of noise and speed erupted like a volcano.
There were impressive individual performances, as well as some exceptional teamwork from the Houses. It was hard to look past the powerhouse that is Harcourt who were dominant in the early rounds, but Swift, as ever, were building momentum and looked to have a foothold in the race. Gascoigne’s endless energy brought the crowd to rapturous applause but, in the end, it was Queen Anne who were just too strong for the competition and charged to victory.
Congratulations to Queen Anne and all the competitors who took part for another exciting and good spirited event.
