Sporting young people looked to the future at a special conference.
More than a dozen athletes at Bolton School girls' division attending the the Girls Go Gold Sports Conference held at Wycombe Abbey School.
It was organised by the Girls School Association event.
A total of 350 pupils in Years 10-13 from 26 independent girls’ schools across the country enjoyed a day of sports based activities.
Practical workshops for lacrosse, rugby, cricket, netball and fitness were delivered by specialist coaches in their field.
There were also opportunities to experience first-hand what a career in sports media and presenting entails, along with tips for managing the demands of being an elite athlete alongside the pressure of sitting GCSE and A level exams.
Keynote addresses from Professor Greg Whyte and Sue Anstiss MBE provided a lively debate about measures for the levelling up of opportunities for girls in sport.
