Scots youngsters in Sainsbury’s School Games competition
Scotland’s young hockey hopefuls of the future will get their first taste of competitive tournament hockey when they take part in the Sainsbury’s School Games in Sheffield from 12-13 September.
Two groups of youngsters from Scotland, boys and girls, will take part in matches against Wales and Ulster this weekend.
The Sainsbury’s 2013 School Games is a multi-sport event for the UK’s elite young athletes of school age. Around 1,600 of the nation’s finest young sports stars will compete. Competition will be held in twelve current and future Olympic and Paralympic sports: Fencing, Rugby Sevens, Gymnastics, Hockey, Badminton, Athletics, Cycling, Judo, Swimming, Table Tennis, Volleyball and Wheelchair Basketball.
The Sainsbury’s 2013 School Games seeks to create an inspirational and motivational setting which not only provides our elite young sports people with the opportunity to thrive and perform at the highest levels, but encourages more young people to take part and succeed in sport. Responsibility for the development and organisation of the Sainsbury’s 2013 School Games lies with the Youth Sport Trust.
