Saturday 16 March saw the return to the Ampleforth valley of many sporting heroes of the last few years to play their sport in OA teams against current College sides. The weather was fine, spirits were high and wild predictions as to who would win abounded. Nothing would stop the enthusiasm of the day.
Andrew Sparke (D83) and Niamh (Yr12) have written wonderful accounts of their experiences of the weekend celebrating the 50 plus years of the Ampleforth College Schola Cantorum.
The Old Amplefordian Cross Country squad returned to the valley to take on the College on the afternoon of Saturday 20 January. The day was cold, wet and ground muddy and conditions just right for those taking on the 7.5km Senior Course.
