SPRINTERS from the York area will be out to make a big impression at the English Schools Championships in Sheffield later this week.

North Yorkshire has named a strong line-up for the two-day meeting which starts at the Don Valley Stadium on Friday.

It will be a big meeting for Nestl Rowntree Athletics Club's sprinting coach Geoff Barrowclough, who has four runners in the York squad under his wing.

They include his 16-year-old grandson, 400m star Richard Buck (Lady Lumley's School, Pickering), the North Yorkshire county record holder; Kate Caffrey (Joseph Rowntrees) and Heather Howard (Burnholme), who will both tackle the 100m Junior Girls event, and Jessica Taylor (The Mount), who will tackle the 200m.

For good measure he also coaches 15-year-old Woldgate School, Pocklington, pupil Will Steel, who is a member of Humberside's 4 x 100m relay squad.
