Young People's Sports Awards 2008
Nearly 200 young sports stars had their achievements recognised at the annual
Young People’s Sports Awards at Erith Leisure Centre as the Sports Development
Team joined up with the two School Sports Partnerships to celebrate a wealth
of fantastic achievements.
During the event, two times Olympian and Bronze medal winner, kayaker Ian
Wynne, took to the stage with an inspirational presentation. After the event
Ian passed around his Olympic medal for young people to get a feel for what
the future could hold as well as signing autographs and having his picture
taken.
The sporting categories awarded this year included young volunteers, endeavour
awards and national honours, recognising the 23 young people from Bexley that
are already competing at national and international events, along with some
of the top teams that competed for Bexley at the London Youth Games.
The awards also recognised the contribution individuals and schools make to
sports clubs outside normal curriculum time, as well as sports volunteers and
the borough's top school teams.
