Yavneh College pupil Jayden Klein, 12, has made a tremendous start to his athletics career. Willing to try any event, the Maccabi London Harrier has competed at, among others, Watford open graded and London Inter-Club challenge meetings.

He has achieved national U13 rankings in the 100m, 200m, 75m hurdles and high jump, all of these either before, or just after, his 12th birthday. His personal best marks for these events are 13.94, 28.61, 15.90 and 1.35m.

Middle-distance specialist Millie Aslan, now 14, demonstrated her versatility by taking five individual gold medals at the JCC Games in Orange County. Her winning events were the 800m, 1,500m, 3,000m, long jump and triple jump, and for good measure she also took silvers in the 100m and high jump. In national competition Aslan improved her personal bests over 200m, 800m and 1,500m to 31.57, 2:42.83 and 5:35.82 respectively.  She also helped Highgate Harriers to secure team silver in the Middlesex cross-country championships and represented Haringey Borough in both the London Youth Games cross-country championship and the Virgin London mini-marathon.
