LEFTWICH students have benefited from the advice of two sporting greats.
England footballer Sue Smith and Commonwealth gold medal winning boxer Courtney Fry both visited The County High School Leftwich as part of the Sky Sports Living for Sports Programme.
Year eight and 11 pupils were given football lessons by Sue Smith before she gave inspirational assemblies to year seven and eight.
Boxer Courtney Fry, who visited the school last Monday, helped to build the confidence and team work of 20 year nine girls while looking at the six keys to success – mental toughness, hunger to achieve, people skills, sports and life knowledge, breaking barriers and planning for success.
Year nine and 10 students then benefited from inspirational assemblies similar to those given by Sue Smith.
