Teamwork, flexibility and synchronization exhibited during the GEO 16 Sports Night


GEO 16’s Sports Night Another exciting adventure as our seven competing teams mark their spot in GEO 16’s Sports festival. If Hogwarts had a Quidditch match, so does GEO. And if Hogwarts had four houses, the GEO Sports Night tournament has seven competing teams making the competition even more fun and exciting. The pressure between the competing teams gets higher as team New Zealand remains at the top spot for the third time. Can they retain their crown up to the last round? Let’s find out.

There are four games in the event: The Hoola Pass, The Three Legged race, Basketball Shoot out and the Snack Attack.
