School Games 2016

6 September 2016

Charlotte Oswald (Upper Sixth, Queen’s) and Thalia Felton (Upper Sixth, Queen’s) were selected to represent one of three England U17 teams in the School Games 2016 competition which included teams from Wales, Scotland and Ulster.

The School Games provides a crucial environment to nurture top young athletes who come through the NGB talent systems. The four-day spectacular is supported by National Lottery funding from Sport England and delivered by the Youth Sport Trust. Lottery funding from Sport England supports not just the sport and event delivery, but also a full athlete education programme, which gives the young athletes an insight on life at the very highest level of sporting competition.

Congratulations to Thalia who was in the England Red squad that won the gold medal.
