Isaac Rises to Elite Ranks: Selected for National Youth Talent Programme

We are proud to announce the exceptional achievements of Isaac, a remarkable young athlete whose talent continues to soar to new heights. Already recognised as the Shaftesbury Barnet Harriers U17 Field Athlete of the Year, Isaac has now been selected to join the prestigious 2025-2027 Youth Talent Programme (YTP) for pole vault.

This is an extraordinary honour, as Isaac is one of only two male pole vaulters selected in all of England for this elite pathway.

The YTP selection is a testament to Isaac's dedication, hard work and outstanding potential in the sport. As part of the programme, he will receive specialist training at the esteemed Loughborough University, a globally recognised hub for sporting excellence. Furthermore, Isaac will undertake a Diploma in Sporting Excellence (DiSE), which he will manage alongside his A-Level studies.

This dual focus on elite training and academic achievement highlights Isaac's commitment to both his athletic and educational future. We could not be prouder of his accomplishments and look forward to following his journey as he trains and competes at the highest level.
