The National Secondary School Sports was held at the National Stadium on the 3rd and 4th of April. This sports meeting was unique due to the fact that there were no zonal qualifing heats. Each school had to enter a specified number of competitiors per event; usually one or two. It consisted of four distinct age groups for both boys and girls: Class 1 - 17-20: Class 2 - U/17: Class 3

Presentation College's track & field team was selected from those athletes who had perfonned outstandingly at the inter-house games. Due to certain unforseen factors a team of 23 athletes represented the college instead of a proposed 39.

Several training sessions were held on the school compound on Saturday mornings. Naparima Girls' High School students trained together with the Presentation Squad. These coaching sessions were led by Ronald B. Rogers, who runs for the Cole Cold Brooklyn Sports Club. The team Captain was Van Cowan, who represents Trintoc Point-a.Pierre Sports Club.

The Sports meeting, on the whole was not as exciting as one would have expected, but nevertheless, it was a new experience for most of the team. The competition from rival schools was very high, but Presentation College shone gold through the efforts of Van Cowan. Van, in a thrilling display of power and speed, won the 200 m. for boys Under 20.

Cohn Osbourne, a characteristic late starter but a powerful sprinter once going, came 2nd in the 100 m. Boys Under 20.

Ronald Rogers and Duane Dyer qualified for the 400 m. final Boys Under 20. Duane, just having run a 4 x 100 relay, was unable to appear for the final. Ronald went on to place 4th in the final. Cecil Hinds came 6^th in the boy's 200 m. Under 13.

The 4 x 100 relay team for boys Under 20 placed 4th in the final. This team was represented by Duane Dyer (1st leg), Neil Mason (2nd), Daniel Quashie (3rd) and Ronald Rogers (anchor).

Duane Dyer placed 5th in the high jump, clearing a height of 1.85 meters.

Family Day Telematch '86. organised by Naparima Girls' High School, was a total success. It was a day which was enjoyed by competitors and spectators alike. A crowd, estimated at 200 people, sidelined the Presentation College school field to witness the day's proceedings and to cheer for their respective schools. This year's competition was held among seven schools: 1. Presentation CoUege San F'do 2. Naparima Boys' College 3. Naparima Girls' High School 4. Pleasantville Senior Comprehensive School 5. San F'do Senior Comprehensive School 6. San F'do Secondary School 7. St. Joseph's Convent.

Presentation's school team consisted of ten members: 4 Form is, 1 Form 2, 1 Form 3, 1 Form 4 , Form 5s & 1 Form 6 2 Student. The team emerged suprise winners which sent a shock wave throughout the school the following Monday. The team's success was due to their consistency in placing either 1st, 2nd or 3rd in each event, with the exception of the Dominoes event, where they tied for last place. A beautiful trophy and several library books were presented to team captain Ronald B. Rogers.

Special credit should be given to the form I students, Attong, Manning, Moroang & Emerith for their excellent dicipline and performances; Paul Cook of Form 4 for capturing 1st place in the Banking event and Jesus Hackshaw for assisting the captain in keeping the team going. The most popular member of the team was Ulric Joseph, whose high Spirits and fun loving nature kept the team's morals at a peak.
