BROADWAY youngster Ibble Watson enjoyed success in the Equity Inter School Challenge.

The Malvern St James School pupil, 11, won the girls’ under 12s gold medal at the British Ski Academy venue in Les Houches, France.

She won the first and second contest before coming second in the third.

In the giant slalom over two races, Watson won the first but conditions slowed her to second place by a narrow margin, resulting in a silver medal overall.

Despite being the only team member from the Worcestershire school, her individual points were sufficient to put them fourth.

Watson was presented with her medals by headteacher Patricia Woodhouse at a school assembly.
