For the first time ever the complete range of athletic events took place and this means that
records were set for the hammer, pole vault and race walk. A total of 36 events on the track
and 27 field made it certainly the biggest School Sports Meeting ever attempted. A large crowd
of boys' parents and friends were present and there was certainly much to see and take an
interest in. 12 events had a full total of 8 competitors, 24 had 7. Again 12 events had 6
competitors, 6 events had 5 and 3 events had 4. Allowing for the fact that competitors could
compete in three events, about 200 boys took an active part in the Sports, surely the object
of any School Sports Meeting. |
