The School Games National Finals will mark its 20th anniversary when it returns, celebrating two decades of bringing together talented young athletes from across the home nations.

This event aims to create an inspirational and developmental environment that provides aspiring athletes with experiences to accelerate their progression alongside promoting inclusion and celebrating diversity, helping more young people to take part and succeed in sports.

Competitors at this year’s School Games National Finals will include both those currently in junior national rankings in their sport alongside a broader range of young people who are exhibiting potential and have been identified from environments and programmes other than NGB pathways.

The School Games National Finals is delivered by the Youth Sport Trust and National Governing Bodies, hosted by Loughborough University and funded by Sport England and players of the National Lottery.
