The Ambition Junior Team had a great day in the first NJR event of the 2011 English Championships with Emily Evans and Imogen Taylor making the Jnr1 podium in 1st and 3rd position (2nd and 4th overall). Amy, Ellie and Vi also made their 2nd best results in slalom so far this season on the Stella Alpina piste at Bormio 2000.
In the mens event, Ashley Hill laid down a storming first run in only his 3rd week of skiing since last April to stay within 0.5 of the leader and although he had a few mistakes on run 2, still finished 0.7 off to finally get a result more in line with his skills. Joseph Webb also made use of another good 2nd run start position to make a P.B result, and Peter Glasgow finished 2 clean runs to get his best result of the winter so far. Barney, Tom and Kieran made 2nd best results too.
All in all a good start to the week, tomorrow the juniors will move down to the Stelvio piste for GS while the kids kick off their championships with Slalom on Stella Alpina.
Best of luck to everyone for tomorrow!
