A group of Thurrock sports students recently organised a Dodgeball tournament for local primary school, Woodside.
Although it was lots of fun there was a serious side to ball dodging as the event was part of the students BTEC Extended Diploma sports course, the group showed excellent teamwork, leadership organisation and communication skills in planning and leading the activity.
Team leader of the event, Perry Greenbaum, 19, from Grays, said: “It was really challenging setting everyone their particular job roles and having to organise such things as team prizes, refreshments and timings. Overall I think the event ran really smoothly and all the children really enjoyed themselves”.
In fact the event was such a success the College has been asked to run another one next year!
