Some of the schools that participated were Diamond Vale Government, Diego Martin Government, Petit Valley Boys, Maraval RC, Dunross Preparatory, Mucurapo Girls and Mucurapo Boys.

Minister of Education Anthony Garcia praised all those involved in the Rotary Games at the opening ceremony.

“It is significant that these games have reached the milestone of 29 years. It shows commitment, dedication by all those who are responsible including our teachers, our parents, our organisers and most of all the sponsors,” he said.

Garcia encouraged the young athletes to aim high.

“Remember these games can serve as an incubator for our students, our budding athletes. Because I am sure in the not too distant future, some of you will be able to aspire to the heights of Hasely Crawford and Keshorn Walcott, and you will be bringing home gold medals from the Olympics and other major games.”
