ISSFHK Athletics Championships Summary – WIS Overall Champions
The 2017 ISSFHK Athletics Championships took place on the 21 and 22 March at the Siu Sai Wan Sports Ground. With 21 International Schools participating, these Championships provide a great opportunity, especially our younger athletes, to gain experience in a competitive environment.
We are delighted to report that the WIS Athletes stepped up not only in terms of their individual performances but also in regards to their organisation, support of each other and sportsmanship.
WIS were successful in retaining the overall championship title and won 4 out of 8 age group divisions: U14 Boys, U16 Boys & Girls, and U20 Girls.
Congratulations to all athletes-learn from the experience and apply your new knowledge to your training.
