Cornwall was one of nine counties chosen to be part of the School Games for the Olympics, and sailing was one of the chosen sports.

Cornwall Sports Partnership donated all of the medals and a T-shirt for the winners.

The event mainly consists of pupils bringing their own boats, but there are were also many dinghies loaned to enable the youngsters to get on the water.

There were three races in all with classes of Optimists, Pico single handed, Pico double-handed, Toppers, Lasers, Mirrors and Fevas. Truro School retained the overall team trophy.
