- Main Message: Sacred Heart Fun Sports Day
Date/Time: 11th August 2024 1pm – 5pm
Venue: Sacred Heart Centre 80 Nemies Rd, Runcorn
Details: In response to the Olympic spirit, after discussion with Fr. John and the some members, we have decided to hold a Sacred Heart Fun Sports Day on Sunday 11th August after mass from 1pm to 5pm. This sports day will take advantage of the Olympic momentum, combining tradition and innovation, to present a vibrant and joyful sports event.
The event will feature a variety of exciting activities, including ball relay, ball passing into a bucket, kangaroo jump, fun relay races, and other sports, which not only test physical fitness but also emphasise teamwork and coordination. We hope that through these activities, everyone can relax and enjoy the joy of sports amidst their busy lives, further strengthening the friendship between each other.
To encourage participation, the sports day will also feature individual champions for each event and first, second, and third prizes for the overall competition, along with exquisite prizes and surprise raffles. Whether you are a sports enthusiast or someone who enjoys cheering from the sidelines, you will find your own fun here. Let’s sweat together, feel the charm of sports, and share the joy of victory.
We warmly invite everyone to sign up. Sign up in groups of three, with self-arranged groupings suitable for all ages. Please register in the group chat or later with the organising team members. Let’s embrace the Olympic spirit together and welcome this infinitely joyful fun sports day!
