A huge congratulations to our young athletes! Westminster proudly clinched Bronze in Boys Table Tennis at the London Youth Games Finals Festival, held at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park this July.

More highlights from Westminster:

  • Silver in Boys Cricket
  • 4th in Girls Judo
  • 5th in Boys Basketball

Cllr Cara Sanquest, Cabinet Member for Communities at Westminster City Council, said:

“It’s brilliant to see so many children and young people living or studying in Westminster excel in the London Youth Games this year. It’s fantastic that a Westminster competitor has taken home bronze in table tennis, and that we had impressive successes in cricket and basketball. All of our athletes have done Westminster proud – congratulations to everyone who took part.”
