National School Sports Week 2023
The Youth Sport Trust are excited to announce that their annual campaign, National School Sports Week, is back for 2023, running from Monday 19 to Sunday 25 June. This year, they’re aiming to ensure that all children in the UK are active for the Chief Medical Officer's recommended minimum of 60 minutes a day. And they need your help to achieve this goal.
Did you know that less than half of children in the UK are active for 60 minutes a day? Shockingly, 2.2 million children fall well below that level and are active for less than 30 minutes (source: Sport England Active Lives Children and Young People Survey Academic year 2021-22). But, together, we can change that.
That's why the YST are excited to partner with Sports Direct for this year's campaign, and they are asking you to 'play for fun, play for 60'! They are inviting you to take the #PledgeToPlay for 60 minutes a day during this year's National School Sports Week.
