Three medals have been won by Athletics Malta team on day 1 of the GSSE 2015 Games.
Starting the ball rolling was Rebecca Camilleri who claimed the Silver Medal in the Long Jump with a jump of 6.15 metres. Second was Giselle Camilleri, Silver in the 10,000 metres with a time of 38:11.64.
Then it was Charlotte Wingfield’s turn with a 11.71 in the 100 metres, claiming the Gold Medal.
In the 400 metre semi-finals, all of our athletes Janet Richard, Francesca Borg, Kevin Moore and Reece Dimech qualified for the final.
Much tougher was the 800 metre Men final where our boys, Matthew Croker and Neil Brimer, in very arduous climatic conditions could not produce the performances that they very much hoped to achieve on this day.
