Our best result for at least 10 Years!

KGV Girls Athletics team finished 6th Overall in Division 1 at the HKSSF Championships.  This is the best result we have had for at least 10 years. At one of the most prestigious sporting events for Hong Kong Schools we are one of two ESF Schools in the 1st Division.

All athletes competing contribute points to an overall score.  They compete to achieve a standard point and also additional points for making finals, along with double points for relays.   At division 1 the standard is outstanding with several National age group and record holders competing. We are extremely proud of the whole team and could not have done this without everyone’s contribution.  KGV outstanding and dedicated athletes that achieved finals and achieved a top 8 position are;
