Event Description
Schools are invited to enter up to two teams of 8 pupils from Years 7–9 to take part in this inclusive bowling competition. The event provides an opportunity for more pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in mainstream schools to represent their school and experience competitive sport in a fun, supportive and inclusive environment.
Each team will play a full game of ten-pin bowling, with pupils working together to achieve the highest possible score. The winning team will be determined by the highest average team score, with individual prizes also awarded to pupils achieving the highest individual scores.
