Skiers Celebrate Podium Finish

Hutchie skiers race into podium position for the Autumn Dual Slalom Series Qualifier.

The pupils attended the Scottish Schools Snowsports Association Autumn Dual Slalom Series Qualifiers last Friday, which took place at the Glasgow Ski & Snowboard Centre in Bellahouston.

Through a series of exciting head-to-head races, competing against nine schools in a relay-style event, Hutchie skiers finished in podium positions to take home Gold, Silver and Bronze medals.

The Hutchie Secondary A Team, consisting of Rory, Christopher, Struan and Logan, won Gold in the Secondary Category.

The Hutchie all boys’ Open Team, won Silver in the Open Category and consisted of team members Robert, Finlay, Campbell and Murray.

Finally, the Hutchie Secondary B Team, placed third to receive the Bronze medal for team members Michael, Eilidh, Mariam and Felix. Michael and Felix are our youngest team members and held their own when competing against the Glasgow schools.

All competing skiers performed extremely well on a very wet and cold evening, and these fantastic results mean that the Open and Secondary Teams qualify for the Secondary Finals.

Congratulations to all teams, and best of luck to the Open and Secondary A Team for the Secondary Final which will take place later this year.
