A round-up of the 2024 season

The Games started back in November with the Cross Country and culminated last weekend at the Finals Festival at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.  

Throughout the season Bexley entered 19 teams across 15 different sports. 15 of these teams achieved a top 10 placing with special congratulations to the following teams who finished on the podium:

• 1st Boccia
• 2nd Judo girls

In total 180 amazing competitors represented Bexley, supported by over 50 very hard-working Team Managers, Coaches and Volunteers. We finished 18th overall in the Jubilee trophy standings (awarded to the overall highest-scoring borough).

We’d like to thank everyone who has helped make this season such a success for Bexley.
