Principal’s Welcome
by
Mrs Lyndsey Kane
It is an absolute privilege to welcome you to the Bideford College Inaugural Sports Presentation
Evening 2018. This is an evening where we celebrate the sporting prowess of the magnificent young
people who attend Bideford College. An evening where we are able to get to recognise sporting
excellence in all its many forms. Where we celebrate: hard work, teamwork, determination, pride and
skill – showing that when you put your mind to something, and commit dedicated hours – all can
triumph! This is also an evening of celebration for the many parents, coaches and carers, who devote
hours to support and enable our young people to attend practices, clubs, events and competitions
across the length and breadth of the county and for some – the country and even the world!
Students have been nominated from all year groups, as we look to celebrate future potential as well
as actual achieved sporting victory. We will be celebrating not only the achievements of Bideford
College sports teams and individuals – proud to be representing Bideford College, but also those who
are highly successful out of College – in many different sporting fields. The attitudes and aptitudes
required for sporting success are identical to those required for academic success. Determination,
resilience, effort, risk-taking, to be the very best you can possibly be, are attributes clearly
demonstrated by students this evening – and also by the students who attend Bideford College on a
daily basis.
I am very proud to be the Principal of Bideford College – particularly when it gives me another
opportunity to celebrate what each and every one of the nominees is able to achieve. The
accomplishments recognised this evening are a small part of the bigger picture in which every young
person has the opportunity and aspiration to be whatever it is they dream to be. I hope that you
have a truly enjoyable evening and that the students are justly proud of all they have accomplished.

KS3
Year 9 Boys’ Rugby Team
The Year 9 boys’ main achievement this year was beating their arch rivals Park after reaching the final
of the North Devon Schools’ Cup Competition. The game was played at Bideford Rugby Club and after
normal time it was a draw, so the team had to dig deep in extra time to become our first 15 a-side
winners in several years with a score line of 31-12. The team also finished runners up in the 10 a-side
competition and travelled to Exeter to play the best schools in the county, where they had good wins
against Exmouth and Tavistock and their cup win earned them a 15 a-side county semi-final which they
narrowly lost to Exmouth. In 7 a-side they won all of their group games but went out in the semi-final to
West Buckland. In the league, they won all of their games including a 50-0 win against Chumleigh despite
playing 3 players short! The team has a core of very strong, talented and experienced players but has
also seen several new players emerge this year.
Year 9 Boys’ Football Team
The team that does not know how to lose! North Devon Champions back in Year 7 and now most recently
in Year 9, only narrowly missing out in the final in Year 8. They are unbeaten so far this season and have
just qualified for the schools Devon County Cup semi-final after beating Exmouth 3-0. This team is very
well balanced, and is just that…a team! They all work tirelessly on the pitch, covering for each other and
keeping up a high level of tempo regardless of the score. They don’t know when they are beat and more
importantly they are the best bunch of lads you would ever want to work with. They never let you down
and never say a bad word to the referee (regardless of the decision!).
Year 7 Boys’ Rugby Team
The Year 7’s are challenging for the right to call themselves Bideford College’s best rugby team. They
won all of their games in their first tournament, beating Torrington, South Molton, Holsworthy, Kingsley,
West Buckland and Chumleigh. They are also unbeaten in the league and recently won the North Devon
tournament by again winning all but one of their matches.
Year 7 Boys’ Football Team
In their first season at Bideford College, this team was exceptionally committed to training and fixtures.
After beating Torrington, Chumleigh, Braunton, Ilfracombe and Park, the Year 7 team were undefeated
all season and consequently crowned as the North Devon Champions. The team showed great character
and cohesion and the PE Department look forward to more success from this team in Year 8.Under 12 Girls’ Football Team The Year 7 girls had three league nights against Pilton, Ilfracombe and Braunton. They won all of their games on the first night and overall, they finished with six wins, a draw and two defeats. These results were good enough to see them into the North Devon Schools’ final which will be played after Easter. Under 14 Girls’ Football Team The Year 8 & 9 team were unbeaten in their league fixture against Pilton, Ilfracombe and Braunton to reach the North Devon Schools’ final against Park. They had a really poor start in the final going 3-0 down but showed their character by coming back to 3-2 down and then 4-3 down, outplaying Park in the middle part of the game, although they eventually lost with a final score of 6-3. However, superb effort and commitment, show that this team are made up of true champions. Girls’ Doubles Tennis Team Niamh Ramsay and Katie Rowe retained their Tarka Doubles title. Winning a Doubles Tournament two years in a row is a wonderful achievement and they have the measure of the doubles team from West Buckland as they have beaten them in the final twice. All Years’ Tennis Team The Boys’ and Girls’ Tennis Teams both qualified from their leagues to play in the regional finals at Taunton. They enjoyed a competition at Tarka and are looking forward to competitions at the Atlantic Racquet Centre this summer.

and continue to develop as a squad.

North Devon Champions! What makes them deserved nominees is that throughout the tournament
they grew as a team, they learnt from their errors, they developed their own game plans, they made the
decisions and calls on the pitch and they took on board the advice from their coach. But ultimately when
