Eight schools will be participating in the championship with the top three teams set to receive trophies and medals while the fourth placed finisher collects medals only.

According to Co-ordinator Sharma Allicock there will be an incentive for the team that attends the sessions and interacts meaningfully. The chosen schools will be presented with a Plaque.
