A SPORTS DAY FOR 15-120 ADULTS WHERE EVERYONE IS A WINNER

The great thing about our Sports Day is that you don't have to be a super-athlete to do well in it. Wit, cunning and the ability to pretend you are back at school will help though!

Our experienced, professional actors play an assortment of teachers including the Headmaster Mr. Crippen, the Gym Mistress Miss Bull and the Head of Geography Mr. Snodgrass. They supervise all the activities, comment on the action and interact hilariously with the "pupils" - i.e you!

Among the activities you may participate in are the wheelbarrow race, the egg throwing challenge, the horse race, the Stop Smirking Challenge, the Space Hopper race, the one-legged challenge, the three-legged race and the sprint relay.

The event is rounded off with an amusing debrief by the Headmaster and a rousing prize-giving ceremony.
