Scotland youths to compete at Sainsbury’s School Games

Two strong youth sides will be representing Scotland in front of a sell-out crowd at the Sainsbury’s School Games held in Manchester at the beginning of September.

The multi-sport event consists of 1600 young athletes who will compete in 12 sports in venues across Manchester from 4th-7th September. Hockey will be based at the Armitage Site along with badminton and rugby 7’s, hockey has been in high demand and organisers are having to add an extra 200 seats to cater for the demand!

The games include an athlete’s village, anti-doping education, plus opening and closing ceremonies at the Veledrome. All these great opportunities are to give the next generation of sports stars a feel for what it is like to compete in a multi-sport event.

There are 12 hockey teams this year – 6 girl’s teams and 6 boy’s teams consisting of Scotland, Wales, Ulster, England White, England Blue and England Red. Each team will have 2 qualifying games followed by games for 5th/6th places, 3rd/4th places and 1st/2nd places.

The girls and boys face both England sides and will be hoping for strong performances throughout the tournament.

This is a fantastic opportunity for our young Scots to experience a multi-sport event, tickets are still available to buy.
