Competition Time
Young Geographer of the Year competition
Young Geographer of the Year (YGOTY) competition is run in conjunction with Geographical magazine. It began in 2000 and has become a regular feature in many schools' calendars.
2012: What are the connections between your local area and the 206 Olympic and Paralympic participating nations and how do they influence the geography of your local area?
The 2012 Young Geographer of the Year competition draws its inspiration from the Society’s ‘Walk the World’ project, part of the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad. Walk the World invites people to explore their local connections to the 206 Olympic and Paralympic participating nations. The question we are asking young geographers to answer this year is:
'What are the connections between your local area and the 206 Olympic and Paralympic participating nations and how do they influence the geography of your local area?'
We would prefer you to explore and explain a small number of your most interesting or unusual connections (for example, at least five), rather than listing every connection you can find. It is not a competition to find the most connections.
Pupils in the three youngest categories (nine to 11, 12 to 14 and 14 to 16) should answer this question using an annotated diagram or map (no larger than A3 in size). Students in the 16 to 18 category should answer this question through a 1,500 word essay which can include illustrations.
