Former WHS student Meade, who won the overall under-17 competition, set a personal best 35.6m on the jump section, immediately recognised as a Central Region record.

Father Simon Meade was able to confirm that based on the 2017 ranking list, his daughter's jump was now in the top 20 of the world's under-17 females.

"She's been working pretty hard to get there".
