A Dulwich College student has beaten opposition from all over London to win an award at the London Heathrow Youth Games.

Elisha Ovia, from Selsdon, was awarded the male junior sports award for being the main goalscorer in the hockey event at Crystal Palace for the past two years.

The award also recognises Elishas skills in rugby and athletics, at which he has represented the borough at the London Schools Champ-ionships.

Elisha was presented with his award by deputy mayor of Southwark Councillor Dora Dixon-Fyle at a ceremony at Warwick Park School.

Coun Dixon-Fyle said: It was a great day for the young-sters. The kids were on great form and they showed it. To come top in so many events is a fantastic achievement.
