The kid Olympics were held in Sydney this year. Thirty countries competed in seventeen events. The athletes were aged between thirteen to nineteen. The kids even got to stay in the athletes village.Australia won over two-hundred and fifty medals. In the past years over seventy kids have gone throught to the

Olympics after competing in the kids olympics. This event was so successful that the Olympic Committee have decided to hold their own one next year in Singapore.

I believe that this event is a very good idea and gives kids a chance to prove that they are good enough to be in the Olympics.
