Senior Team Maths Challenge

19th Nov 2018
The team representing Ballymena Academy at the UKMT Senior Team Maths Challenge was made up of Michael Allen and Michael Gregg from Y14 and Ryan Irwin and David Boriceanu from Y13.

The competition is held annually in Rockport School, Hollywood and the Belfast regional competition is open to schools from all over Northern Ireland. It consists of 3 rounds of 40 minutes: a group round where the team all work together to solve ten problems, a cross number where the team work in pairs to solve down & across clues and a shuttle round where the team, again in pairs, solve problems and pass on the answer to start the other pair’s problem.

The team from Ballymena Academy came a very creditable 5th in the highest scoring Belfast competition ever seen.
