They will be required to stay on site throughout the event.\nWe are expecting up to 150 children to attend the event.\n\nSports and activities: \nThe National Junior Games are a mixture of have-a-go and friendly competition in a variety of sports. At sports where competition takes place within the programme\, staff aim to use an informal classification system where possible however due to the inclusive eligibility and number that attend the event it is difficult to operate a full classification system. Therefore\, this may result in a range of abilities within the competitions. \nThe sports and activities at the event include archery\, athletics\, basketball\, boccia\, bowls\, cue sports\, fencing\, golf\, handcycling\, polybat\, powerlifting\, rugby\, swimming\, table games\, tennis and zone hockey. \nEveryone will be welcomed to take part and the sports and activities will be suitable for you at a level at which you will feel comfortable. \nAll of our sports coaches are qualified\, have DBS checks and have lots of experience of delivering activity to disabled people. \nAll young people attending can discuss their needs and support with the Event Manager and sport coaches in a safe and private environment before starting an activity. \nIf you want to have a chat and find out more or ask any questions please contact WheelPower on:\n01296 395995 or email: info@wheelpower.org.uk URL:https://ablemagazine.co.uk/event/wheelpower-national-junior-games/ LOCATION:Stoke Mandeville Stadium\, Guttmann Road\, Stoke Mandeville\, HP21 9PP\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Sports Event,UK Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ablemagazine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/60Y6271.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="WheelPower":MAILTO:info@wheelpower.org.uk END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
