More success for Hussey

More success for Hussey

North Yorkshire’s Ethan Hussey won the Men’s 1500m race at the Youth Nations cup in Dublin recently in early August.

A huge congratulations from all at NYSAA to Ethan.

“A 72–strong England team took part in the inaugural U18 Youth Nations Cup in Dublin on 3 August, where overcast and humid conditions failed to dent enthusiasm and spectators were treated to a series of impressive performances from a young England team, many of whom were making their international debuts. This year’s edition of the new competition was a head to head fixture between England and Ireland, with two England teams of equal strength taking on two sides featuring their Irish counterparts. With the team comprising athletes born in 2002 and 2003 – therefore a mix of current U17s and U20s – the match was an opportunity for England’s best to test themselves in international competition and, in the case of sprint hurdlers and throwers, use implements and hurdle heights usually only encountered at international Youth championships.”
