Help Clockhouse take part in the first London Youth Games - Virtual Games!

Dear Parents / Carers,

The London Youth Games, Virtual Games are here and we want to share with you the Challenge Information for Week 1 to help get as many young Londoners as possible from our borough involved!

The LYG Virtual Games are open to all children and young people from London, who will compete across the twelve different challenges to earn points for their Boroughs. You do not need to be a footballer to complete the football challenge or a netballer to complete the netball challenge. All the challenges will come with suggested adaptations for space, equipment and ability to ensure they are as inclusive as possible. A leaderboard with the latest Borough standings will be updated every week, and after the final challenge, the winning Borough will be crowned the first ever LYG Virtual Games champions.

Individual prizes are also up for grabs. Parents are encouraged to share videos of their challenge attempts on social media using the hashtag #ThisIsLYG to be in with a chance of winning the weekly MVP (Most Valuable Player) award. Each week a MVP will be selected based on the ability, creativity and style shown in their videos and the winners will receive a pair of Nike trainers. It would be great to see the #OurClockhouseFamily hashtag too!

The first Challenge Video has been released on the London Youth Games website here is a link. https://youtu.be/8PvyqK3Op00

Also please find attached a challenge sheet explaining how each activitiy works & the ways of changing the activity based on equipment you might have at home.

A new challenge will be sent tomorrow and Wednesday so watch this space!

We hope to see young Londoners coming together and backing the borough of Havering to become the first ever LYG Virtual Games champions!
