The multi-sport event is designed to give young athletes an educational experience and a taste of what it is like to take part in a major competition.

Youth Sport Trust – who are delivering the event – are really disappointed not to be able to welcome spectators onto the site, but for a range of reasons they had to make decisions to ensure that the event could take place for the young athletes, and take place as safely as possible. All spectating of the events will be through the live streams available on the event website.

Whilst the Games will be running without spectators this year, there will be significant activity on campus in advance of, during and after the period of competition. Local community users of campus should be aware of the following information:
