Sports Day.....a brief thought

Now I’m all up for exercise, competitiveness, fresh air and a team environment. However even at junior school level we really need to up our event game. Let’s try and do things that these kids might do, as a sport, when they are adults. With the correct supervision and the right playing area, the following athletic events could easily be put on; hammer, discus, javelin, high jump, long jump….I’ve left out triple just as it’s slightly more complex.

In around 40yrs I have never put a fucking egg on a spoon and tried to win a race, nor have I jumped in the sack and tried to do the same……..oh hold on a minute, scrap that one.

Anyway good people, approach your kids head teachers and ask them kindly if they will up their sports day shit.
