Omar Terywall, of Cambridge, wins the prizes

The News teamed up with BT to find out how you like to stay active in your local park – and what a great response we had!

Readers were asked to send in their pictures as part of the contest which helped promote the free Coaching for Life app.

The winning image was sent in by Omar Terywall, from Fen Ditton.

Omar said: “This shot of me leaping over (and scaring the heck out of) my children was taken by my friend. It was taken on the common by Abbey pool where I play football, frisbee and cricket with the kids . . . and as much as it annoys them, I enjoy power-kiting on my land board.”

The prize was a fantastic new 16GB iPhone 4S and coaching kit. Photos were judged on their artistic merit as well as how they creatively portrayed park-based activities.

Coaching for Life is a free smartphone app available from the iTunes or Android stores at http://www.bt.com/coachingforlife.

It includes 12 activities for indoor or outdoor pursuits and tips about how to improve your coaching style. BT’s Coaching for Life resources are part of Get Set, the official London 2012 education programme for schools and colleges acrossthe UK.
