Rules
Each team must be accompanied by at least one teacher or team manager, who will be fully responsible for the team at all times.
The event will take the form of an enjoyable team and individual based multi-event competition incorporating all-round skills rather than early specialisation. It has been designed as an indoor competition with all events being carried out in the same format and to the same rules – set out by the Sportshall Athletics Association. To ensure the ethics of Fair Play, time penalties, rather than disqualification will be enforced on any athlete/team breaking the rules.
