We had a great turnout at the Games Day this year: 75 adults and 54 children showed up. The annual family event was organized jointly by DSOBA and DBS Athletics Club. It was held on the new school track with the new Clock Tower as the backdrop. The facilities provided an excellent environment for this occasion.
Our old boys and their family members participated enthusiastically in the various games scheduled for the afternoon. As usual we had games for all ages: individual sprints, obstacle races, spoon-and-egg races and 1-lap runs. Several heats were set up for each event, and the nursery-kindergarten group turned out to be the largest of all age groups, with 7 heats scheduled for the individual 40M event alone! The 1-lap run was open to all ages, and it was really exciting to see our littlest "stars" completing one whole lap with such confidence and courage!
Everyone had such a great time that we ran overtime by over an hour and we had to cancel the last 2 family games in order to allow time for the prize presentation. Rudy Chan (79) and Willie Kung (77) kindly presented the medals o the winners of each event. The results of the various events are as follows:
