Special Olympics Worthing 2010
10 pupils from Oak Grove College started the Special Olympic competition season by taking part in the National Sports Hall Athletics event in Portsmouth at the weekend. Wearing their new kit and competing as Special Olympics Worthing they were up against 17 other teams and the competition was tough. The team put in good performances and several team members managed personnel bests which put the team in 3rd place half way through. As the afternoon worn on it was clear that the competition was getting tight at the top and in the end only a few points separated the winners. Special Olympic Worthing was squeeze into 4th place by a strong Bournemouth squad. Every body had a fantastic day and can’t wait to compete in the next event on 28th February.
