Harrogate resident and St John Fisher’s School pupil Jacob Fincham-Dukes competed against athletes from all over the north of England this weekend at the Northern Championships.

Jacob entered 4 under 15 events, the 80m hurdles, long jump, high jump and triple jump winning 3 silver medals and a bronze to be the only athlete finishing in the first three in four separate events.

The Championships capped an excellent first season in athletics for Jacob, adding to his two Yorkshire Championship Gold medals achieved earlier this year.
