D’Mitri Varlack was selected to represent England Schools at the Home Schools International in Belfast after winning the Long Jump at the English Schools’ Championships the week before with a leap of 7.08m.
He led the competition right up until the final round, after leaping 6.98m, when he was pipped by 3cm by the Welsh Schools’ Benjamin Parker.
This is the first time he has been beaten in the Long Jump this year in an otherwise flawless season!
