All of the girls were given a certificate at the end of the event to celebrate their achievement in qualifying for the finals.

We also gave out additional certificates for a select few that showed sportsmanship like qualities through out the day , these were nominated by school staff and volunteers.

A BIG thank you to the young sports leaders from Attleborough Academy , without the support of young leaders events like this events wouldn’t happen.
