Year 4 Tri-Golf London Youth Games Experience

Our Year 4 Tri-Golf team recently represented the Borough of Kingston at the London Youth Games, making so many fantastic memories. Read this report for the full details of this exciting event.

Following the success of winning the Borough festival, O.L.I.’s Year 4 Tri-Golf team represented Kingston at the prestigious London Youth Games. The team worked fantastically in all eight tri-golf stations, scoring an incredible 1,089 points, which included bonus points for enthusiasm and teamwork. 

Out of the 33 London boroughs, O.L.I. secured a brilliant and well-deserved 6th place. This really demonstrates how all team members mastered the putting and chipping techniques involved, as well as highlighting their commitment to thriving as part of a team. As you can see from the photographs and the quotes below, the children had an amazing experience, which will live long in the memory.
