Browne won the sack race, swept the 100, 200 and 300 metres and was second in the long jump and 600 meters to end with 51 points.

The victor ludorum was Kimani Straker, who won the cricket ball throw, long jump, 300 and 800 metres and was second in the 200 among the Under-11 Boys en route to 51 points.

Show-boater Shakoby Brathwaite was the Under-13 boys’ champion with 49 points. He triumphed in the long jump, 100, 200 and 300 metres, while Jakayla Waterman was the Under-13 Girls’ queen with 36 points after winning the 400 and 600. She was second in the 200 and long jump.
