A YOUNG Petts Wood diver returned home with a silver medal from a national skills competition in Plymouth.

Crofton Junior School pupil Lucy Sefton, 10, went one better than last year’s bronze medal success and now moves to the next level up and will compete in National Age Groups competitions with higher difficulty dives.

Lucy was joined at the event by some fellow Crystal Palace Diving Club members who also enjoyed success.

Bromley’s Millie Riley, 10, took bronze in the Group D age 11 girls’ category, where Shortlands’ Louise Bradley, aged 11, claimed the gold.

Evie Smith, aged eight from Bromley, won silver in her age category of the Group E girls’ event.
