New top times in League roller racing

IMG_7181 Large2

The League’s annual winter roller racing event saw new fastest times in almost all race categories.

Teams from eight schools competed on roller-mounted track bikes, racing in groups of four over 500m virtual meters.

Stroud Green’s Year 6s set new League records for the fastest times in both boys and girls — 29.81 and 30.98 seconds respectively.

Next was Risley, hitting 31.05 seconds in the Year 5 Boys, with North Harringay close behind with 32.44 seconds in the Year 4 Boys.

Seven Sisters took 35.05 seconds to come first in the Year 5 Girls, while St. Aidan’s led the Year 4 Girls at 35.08 seconds.

Stroud Green’s fastest boys’ and girls’ times slashed last year’s records set by St. Aidan’s and North Harringay. Both times, however, fell just short of the non-League records set by Stroud Green and North Harringay in the 2021 pilot series.

St. Aidan’s dominance in the Y4 races helped them accrue the most points to finish the day on top with 260 points, with Belmont in second place (245) and North Harringay third (226).
