On October 7th, we had our long-awaited Sports Day, second time lucky due to a previous postponement. Although it was pushed back to October the weather held out for us and despite the wind nearly blowing the Gazebos away, the sun was out, and it was a lovely day. We had the brilliant Adam from Grange Fitness run a warmup for us, along with the help of our resident DJ Roy at the decks. I think we will all agree he was a great addition to the day and our Sports Day was live on Workplace!

We had the wonderful Home Start join us with a great pitch and put game where you could win a bottle of fizzy. Catering Provided some tasty Chilli and Nachos and we even had the Ipswich Town Foundation turn up over Lunchtime with the chance to win tickets to their next home game. Alongside some of the AtLAS clubs in the Hub we also had For You Now, a local business specialising in Cryotherapy. They were there giving some mini sports massages and had air compression leg massagers to try. They were even giving out half price vouchers to try their Cryotherapy chambers.
It was a jam-packed day with nine sports tournaments in total taking place throughout the day.

Group one took part in Netball, Badminton and Boules, Group 2 in the Gym challenge, Football and Basketball and Group 3 in Tennis, Dodgeball and Table-Tennis. After some tough fought tournaments, we had the top 3 teams battle it out in a space hopper race. The overall winners of the Day were the Test Tigers, but all 3 top teams received trophies and water bottles from our Sponsor of the day, Juniper! Thanks to everyone who got involved in the day and all the helpers. We managed to raise over £2000 for Home Start who were astounded by our generosity.
