Grampian Schoolkids Have a Ball at Boccia Festival

Children from across Grampian came together to compete in the last of this year’s School Boccia Festivals organised by Active Schools Aberdeen & Active Schools Aberdeenshire.

Anna Ritchie School, Westfield School & Riverbank Primary turned out for the event, played at Sheddocksley Sports Centre, where they took part in a series of fun drills before competing in a round robin event against the other teams.

The Festival was enjoyed by both pupils and staff alike, and pupils will be able to continue to improve their skills at one of the many regular boccia sessions available throughout Grampian.

A massive thank you to Marna and Cath, two of our fantastic volunteer boccia coaches, who played a huge part in running the event!
