On the 22nd of August, Sunday,17 students from our school went to watch the canoe-kayaking YOG event. Before we went, we were given some things like clappers, flags and this YOG EZ-link card. Everyone was excited to go. Although we missed a little of the event because we were late we still got to watch most of the event. We were watching the quater-finals, semi-finals and finals for both men and women. All the spectetors cheered wildly when the name of the competitor and his or her country was announced. There was this one competitor who was in the lead but then his canoe sank but everybody still cheered for that unfortunate competitor.For the women kayaking bronze medal race, Belgium won and managed to get the bronze medal. And for the finals, China got 2nd and Hungary was able to live up to its name and get first.
For the men's canoeing,When was the finals, everyone cheered wildly and the two competitors peddled hard to try to get the gold medal. In the end, Mexico got 3rd place, Ukraine got 2nd place and Cuba got 1st place.
And for Kayaking, Spain managed to clinch on to 3rd place, Germany got 2nd place and yet again Hungary lives up to its name and got the gold medal.All in all,everyone enjoyed watching the event and had fun too.
