WHAT IS SPORT STACKING

Sport Stacking also known commonly as Cup Stacking, is an activity where stackers have to use both their left and right hands to stack specially designed cups in a pre-determined order. It gain popularity after being featured on a talk show and since then there are several competitions organised all over the world that involve individual and team events.

WHY WE ORGANISE A CHALLENGE AND LEADERBOARD

The competition element provides a fantastic opportunity for children to display their skills acquired through several hours of practice and training (not to mention being away from the phone and computer games). The greatest value participants get out of a competition is building their personal confidence – imagine standing in front of a crowd and stacking cups at lighting speed. While the competition engages the highly skilled and competitive, the festival engages everyone! The festival segment is crafted to include parents, grandparents and even be inclusive to include children and persons with disability. All participants who complete the challenge, will be rewarded with a medal and wonderful gifts. This platform is good for community building, gives an opportunity for corporations to contribute and be involved and promote Physically Literacy!
