Host your own sports day

As we move into the heart of summer, gardens are abloom, and the days are long and warm – the perfect setting for a family sports day. Many of us fondly remember our own school sports days, filled with excitement, friendly competition, and laughter. With grandkids or great-grandchildren gearing up for their sports days at school, why not join in the fun and create your own family sports day at home? It’s a wonderful way to bond, stay active, and relive cherished memories. Here are some timeless activities to consider:

  • Bean Bag Toss
  • Relay Race
  • Three-Legged Race
  •  Egg and Spoon Race
  • Wheelbarrow Race
  • Obstacle Course

TIP – Make sure to have some prizes on hand for the winners of each event. They don’t have to be extravagant – small trophies, medals, or even homemade certificates can add to the fun and competitive spirit.

Keeping fit at an Adlington community

For many Adlington homeowners exercise and healthy living are part of their weekly routine with classes right on their doorstep. We have walking groups, gardening clubs and pétanque teams too.
