A school Boccia Tournament together brought together more than 50 pupils from across Pembrokeshire for an afternoon of competitive and inclusive sport.
The event was held at Haverfordwest High School on Tuesday 21 April, with students from Haverfordwest High students joining Ysgol Bro Gwaun, Greenhill, Henry Tudor and Milford Haven pupils. The event was proudly sponsored by Valero, whose support helped make the tournament possible.
The matches were officiated by Young Ambassadors from Haverfordwest High School, alongside Welsh International Boccia player Sian Jones and her mum, Liz, whose experience added to the professionalism and enjoyment of the day.
After a series of exciting matches, Greenhill Team 4 were crowned champions, defeating Haverfordwest High Team 1 by 6 to 3 in a tense and closely fought final.
Dan Bellis from Sport Pembrokeshire praised the event and everyone involved.
“It was great to see so many children taking part and enjoying themselves in such an inclusive activity. A big well done to all who took part, and especially to Greenhill Team 4 for winning such a competitive final.”
The tournament highlighted the power of inclusive sport to bring young people together, build confidence and create positive sporting experiences for all participants.
