Norfolk School Games

The Norfolk School Games is part of the national School Games programme. It is a government-led programme which aims to inspire children and young people to be physically active.

What are School Games Organisers (SGOs)?

Norfolk is split into 8 different areas, known as School Sports Partnerships (SSPs). Within these SSPs sit School Games Organisers (SGOs) who are specifically tasked with making the School Games happen.

School Games Organisers play an important role in developing and promoting local opportunities. This includes opportunities to move more, but also volunteering and wellbeing events. Each School Games Organiser also takes the lead on arranging activities in schools within their local area.

Active Norfolk will also provide opportunities available to all schools across the county. This includes the annual Norfolk Colour Run, which will be held on Monday 4th July 2022.
