HKSSF Inter School Athletics Competition

We had 145 students take part in the Inter-School Athletics competitions over 6 Days. We were extremely proud of the efforts students had made to perform at their best, battling weather conditions and representing KGV School with honour. After 3 days of competition the Girls managed to remain in Division 1 and placed 8^th overall and the Boys remain in Division 2 also placing 8^th out of 24 Schools. We hope that all the Athletes enjoyed the experience and are inspired to continue to train for next year! We hope to encourage more to join Athletics training and build confidence and success in both Track and Field events. For the HKSSF competition Students collect points for the School by being able to achieve some very challenging standards and also additional points are awarded to students making finals and finishing in the Top 8. The final results can be viewed here.
