Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Annual Repo r t 2023 KJ Bu r kett, Hon Sec r eta r y. I began the review of last year exclaiming that 2022 was one of the most successful years in the History of the Kent Schools Athletic’ Association. We were the aggregate A County Champions at the English Schools’ Track and Field Championships – a title we retained this year (the rfi st time we have ever done so), and we were once again winners of the Aggregate t rophy in the Boys C ross Country Championships a title we retained. Allied to our relentless strong showing among the Combined Events and Race-Walking Championships we really ra e a force to be reckoned with. For this we must thank the school teachers, the club coaches and the athletes and offer a strong consideration that the passion, believe and desire to be the best county in the country is driven by our highest expectations for our events and the performances of the athletes that represent us. We continue to stage and support by putting on high quality events in our county, across our region and in the country. We a re definitely a county that other look up to and watch with a dmiration. In January 2023, we found ourselves hosting our Cross-Country Championships at a venue new for Kent Schools athletes. Dartford’s Central Park has been used for many years as a venue for the Kent Masters XC and with the local connections of Paul Hills we were able to move our event to the north west of the county for the rfi st time in many years. The cold day rp oved to be a very successful one with a number of very good races. We had 1094 entries but only 603 finishers – this was however up by 35 from 2022 across all of the age g roups. We should be aware that the numbers are certainly affected as the age g roups go up. In total our percentage of entries v competitors on the day is at 55% with as high as 70% for year 7 Boys and as low at 43% for Inter Boys! Our Junior fields saw 222 finishers, in the Inters 128 and with the Seniors 67. Thanks to B rian Charlton for rp oviding me with these statistics – the full table of

Section D Achievements and performance which is attached as an appendix to my Secretary’s Annual Report. We need to think about how we can ddra ess this dropout and decline in participation of a round 50 per age g roup. Whilst England Athletics have a plan to change the age g roups – I am not sure that this is the solution. We need to find a way to boost numbers especially based upon the popularity of park runs and the participation of youngsters in that scheme. The planning once again fell in to the hands of Paul Hills and Angela Newark and the unfamiliar setting d d i pose a few challenges for toilets, onsite da min and a few other aspects. The QR code system d d i work better this year – although some athletes d d i manage not to do the right things and avoided the table and thus not providing us with their details. More education and information might be required for team managers and athletes moving forward. The races themselves went smoothly and the officials d d i a super job. Even field veteran and rc oss-country “Newbie” Tim Williams was seen to rc ack a smile at least once during the day (possibly when I fell over). Races were won by: Senio r Boys d – E wa rd Coutts (Tonb r i d ge) 22.56 Senio r Gi r ls – Ca r ys Fi r th (Tonb r i d ge) 15.07 Inte r Boys – Noah Patte r son (SEK) 20.02 Inte r Gi r ls – Annabelle Soute r (Tonb r i d ge) 14.52 Junio r Boys – Joe Scanes (B r omley) 13.39 Junio r Gi r ls – Luciana Smith (B r omley) 10.54 Yea r 7 Boys – Olive r Goo d man (Tunb r i d ge Wells) 10.25 Yea r 7 Gi r ls – Pu rd ey Hutchings (B r omley) 9.59 Most races p rovided a clear winner with a significant time distance between the fi rst and runner up athletes. However, the Junior Girls provided the most exciting race of the day with the top five athletes finishing in 10.54, 10.54, 10.55, 10.57, 10.59! A busy one for the officials. Thanks to Paul Hills and Angela Newark for their dedication and exhaustive hard work to c reate this very successful event year on year. The Inter counties very nearly d d i not happen at all this year and without the support of Geoff Snell, John Saunders and others the event would not have happened. As the co-ordinator of the South

It is for this and for the tireless hours that ra e not seen that we offer this honour to our friends and colleagues B rian and Paul tonight. In last year’s report I explained that we had had our most successful ever – we have followed that up with new records and other new achievements. As we get ever nearer to the 25[th] July 2025 the date of our founding at a meeting in Maidstone 100 years ago, we need to begin to plan for commemorations and celebrations of our Centenary. We ra e in a strong position both within our committee and with our athletes to step onwards to our next century with energy and great confidence. Kent Schools’ continues to mean so much to our athletes past and rp esent that so many wish to be associated with us to help forge even rg eater achievements that others seek to follow. I commend 2023 to you all and look forward to another successful year in 2024. KJBu r kett HonSec r eta r y KentSchoolsAA 13[th] Novembe r 2023 .
