Pupils from Scarisbrick Hall School are celebrating after securing a place at the largest youth sporting event in Lancashire, following victory in a quick sticks hockey competition.
The school battled it out at Ormskirk School and will now represent West Lancashire at the SPAR Lancashire School Games county finals where they will compete against teams from 14 other Lancashire districts in a bid to be crowned county champions in quick sticks hockey.
Chris Hart, school games organiser for West Lancashire, who arranged the event, said: “Huge congratulations to the pupils from Scarisbrick Hall School which is now sending two teams through to the SPAR Lancashire School Games county finals, after previously bagging the top spot for West Lancashire in high five netball.”
Organised by Active Lancashire, the SPAR Lancashire School Games comprises a series of inclusive sporting events that provides competitive and participative opportunities for all school children across the county. Children across Lancashire will continue to battle it out in a range of sports to gain a place at the SPAR Lancashire School Games county finals which will be held at Blackpool’s Stanley Park on July 3.
More than 3,500 children from schools across Lancashire’s 15 districts are now battling it out for a place at the county finals in 16 sports including gymnastics, football, athletics, mixed cricket and touch rugby. New additions to the SPAR Lancashire School Games line-up have also been introduced for 2018, including quick sticks and quad kids.
The SPAR Lancashire School Games is the biggest school games programme of its kind and is implemented by the county’s school games organisers.
This year will mark the twelfth year the county’s school games programme has been sponsored by James Hall & Company Ltd, the SPAR distributors for the north of England. Over £128m of National Lottery and Government funding has been invested into the school games programme.
