The 2016 School Games took place 1-4 September 2016 in Loughborough. This is a multi-sport event for the UK’s elite young athletes of school age. The event seeks to create an inspirational and motivational setting that not only provides our elite young sports people with the opportunity to thrive and perform at the highest levels, but encourages more young people to take part and succeed in sport.

Jai and Cormac were both selected to represent Northern Ireland in the games. Cormac competed in the 800m and Jai performed exceptionally well in the Triple Jump, beating his PB by 30cms.

Well done to both boys!
