Now closed- we look forward to seeing everyone there!

SSN Schools Only
Invite here: GLOW 5,6,7 Dodgeball 11 DEC Lanc & Heysham

Dear PE Co-ordinator,
We would like to invite your school to enter the Lancaster & Heysham SSN
5/6/7 GLOW DODGEBALL FESTIVAL!
This event is scheduled at LANCASTER UNIVERSITY (not University of Cumbria),
on 11th December 2023 9.45-11.30
The event is back and big… in the double sportshall… in the dark!

Teams: 8 on court, Squads of 8- 10, Years 5/6/7. Smaller schools may bring year 4s if required.
Primary- no minimum ratio of boy/girls, secondary may be boys, girls or mixed from year 7 only.
Schools may bring 1 team and request others (by booking on twice) but last time it was full very quickly so is probably unlikely. We have a max number of 32 teams.

This is a fun based event and we will be asking pupils to display honesty. Those not playing a game will officiate their own games. It is not about winning and losing- we simply want a group of pupils to come along and have fun being active, work as a team and be with their friends and be at a bigger event again. Because of the darkened setting, it has been shown to be particular good for pupils who may be more self-conscious than others.

Glow dodgeball takes place in a darkened room with ultraviolet lights that cause balls and players equipment to glow! It’s something a little different- hopefully you can pick a ‘different’ group of pupils. Secondary schools- we’d encourage you to consider choosing pupils who have possibly struggled with transition but would benefit from a fun session with peers.

There will not be an overall winner. Instead we will reward schools on ‘The Spirit of the Games’ values which are Determination, Honesty, Teamwork, Passion, and Self Belief. Hopefully it’s an opportunity for you to pick a targeted group of pupils of your choice. On your feedback forms you suggested transition was a potential issue we hope this will help… Last year we had several Year 7 Heads of Year attend with their teams and found that very useful in building relationships; and lastly, pupil health and wellbeing has been mentioned, this is a chance to have fun, be active and work as a team! Pupils not playing will also have a chance to officiate. Please dress up in your best fluorescent clothing!! For some pictures of our previous Glow event see our social media at @LHschoolsport https://www.facebook.com/LHschoolsport

Coaches can drop off at the side of the sports centre and park on the hashed areas on that side road- please let us know how you plan to travel up prior to the day. See the map below. There is also additional overflow car parking at the side of the sports centre- 2 hours of parking is free, if you arrive too early you may require £3 for the machine- we hope this is not the case but just have it in case.

Event details are as follows:

No spectators.
Schools encouraged to bring some team members who may have a go at officiating- We want the session to be pupils coming together, working together, having fun being active. Teachers may be required to plug gaps but formats will be informal- it’s fun based!
Wear any luminous clothing and/or use UV pens to draw on old clothes. All those children of the 1990s- dig out your old glow sticks and wrist bands! Fluorescent clothing and white work best. We will supply a limited amount of UV make up and glow sticks.

Teams of 8, squads up to 10 (teams may be mixed but there are not set criteria/ratios).
Date: 11th December; 9.45-11.30
Venue: Lancaster University Sports Centre
Please don’t arrive more than 15 minutes before the start & be ready in your finest UV/glow gear!

The theme for 2026 is “Rhythms of Unity”: Celebrating the spirit of major sporting events happening all over the world where sport, culture and imagination come together as one. Mascots, the playful symbols of unity and celebration, join dancers in weaving the rhythms, colours and heritage from across the globe. Each performance reflects the heartbeat of sport- from the power of a sprint, to the grace of gymnastics and the energy of a football match. We are all connected by shared energy, determination and the joy of moving together.

3. Performance and Technical Skill (30 points)

4. Overall impact (30 points)

Penalties will be used for the following:

This course aims to arm staff with the knowledge of making the curriculum more active and working towards your Active 60 minutes. The course will be mainly practical with a focus on curriculum links with Maths, Literacy and Science, as well as useful engagement tools for students with lower levels of engagement and concentration.
It will be a mixture of theory & practical- so please dress appropriately. Nobody will be forced to join in the practical if you want/need to just observe that’s fine!
Schools may send up to 2 members of staff & there is the option to hold a version of the course as an INSET for your school for our Inset fee.
There is a cafe nearby & coffee and vending machine for refreshments on site. There is parking on the site or along Wyresdale Road.
