Final awards at the after games party at Kineton Sports and Social Club 15th July 2012
We had a great evening to celebrate the end of the games at KSSC. Going into the final day Kineton had a clear lead, but with around 12 medals to be won in the last events the competition for 2nd and 3rd was wide open.
With runners travelling from all over to compete, the results of the half marathon did not change the positions on the medals table. However the competitors in the Children's Cycling challenge and the Fun Run were nearly all local and this took mad the final results far from certain.
At the start of the day Tysoe were lying in 4th place with 4 gold medals behind Radway in 3rd with 6 golds, Ratley in 2nd with 8 golds and Kineton comfortably in first place with 19 Golds. Tysoe took Gold and Silver in a hard fought Children's cycling challenge and in the fun run they took Gold again in the under 10's category to take their haul to 6 Gold Medals.
