Wednesday 1st February 2012 at Tong High School

It was the turn of the Year 1 and 2 pupils from local primary schools to compete this week, in the ever-popular tri golf competition.

The competition requires competitors to demonstrate their chipping and putting skills in a series of challenges. Challenges in the competition include Bulls Eye, Dominoes, Cliffhanger, Tunnel Ball, Finders Keepers, High Five, Treasure Island, Zone Ball and Three in a row. These activities, derived from the Golf Foundation, are played on a rotation basis with teams all moving according to the central timer. At each station, the competitors take it in turns to contribute points to their team’s score.

Apprentices on the Tong High School and Bradford Bulls Apprenticeship scheme attended to help officiate the event, by manning each station and assisting and explaining each activity to the young competitors.

Children from Ryecroft, Knowleswood, Newhall Park, All Saints, Bankfoot, St Stephens CE and St Matthews CE attended the event.

After two whole rotations around the activities, the scores were in. All Saints A team were crowned the Key Stage 1 Tri Golf champions 2012. Close behind was Newhall Park Primary School. In 3rd position was Ryecroft A team.

St Stephens CE Primary School was awarded the Sportsmanship award. Well done to all the staff and teams who attended!
