Indoor Sports Hall Athletics Festival

Over 600 young people (year 5/6 pupils) from 23 local primary schools in the Cannock Chase District took part in an Indoor Athletics Festival at the Chase Leisure Centre, on 18 October 2007.

The Festival is now in its fifth year and is run in partnership with the Cannock & Stafford Athletics Club, Cannock Chase District Council, Sports Hall Associates and the Cannock & Rugeley School Sports Partnership.

The day is split into two Festivals, with Rugeley schools competing in the morning and Cannock schools in the afternoon. Youngsters are encouraged to join the Council-run after-school Athletics Clubs, under the supervision of the Community Sports Coach.
