CITV Presenter Jamie RickersWant to enter a team?  We’re suggesting a non-refundable donation of £300 for a team of 10 people (plus two reserves). We’re also suggesting that each team should raise at least £1,000 in sponsorship in aid of NACC to be paid within 6 months of the event.  Click here to download an application form or contact us on 01727 734 485.  Please click here for the Terms and Conditions that you must accept to participate in this event.

The New Children's Presenter of Nickelodeon TV - Jamie Rickers will be providing the commentary for both the adult and children's games.

As the saying goes, it isn’t the winning that’s important but the taking part. Even so, a little friendly rivalry doesn’t go amiss so we hope you’ll bring some cheerleaders along to drive your team to great heights of silliness and maybe even success. The first 20 cheerleaders are free.

Team members for the main event must be 15 years or older. However, the adults won’t be hogging all the fun. There’ll be a side shows for the whole family plus a Children’s Knockout Challenge over lunchtime for children aged 6 years to 14 years. We’re suggesting a donation of £5 per child to participate in this children’s event and we encourage children to raise sponsorship if they wish.  For more information or to enter an Adult or Children's Team contact the NACC Fundraising Team on 01727 734 485.
