What is Quad Kids?

• A nationally proven athletics concept endorsed and supported by England Athletics
• An inclusive team event of 4 girls and 4 boys primarily for school years 3 to 8
• Includes the four core disciplines of running, throwing, jumping and sprinting - hence 'Quad'
• Athletes' performances are scored against results tables and the team with the highest cumulative points is the winner
• It's easy to organise (in its simplest form it can be run with just two supervisors), can take place anywhere and doesn't require access to an athletics track
• It can be run either within a school or club, or even on a virtual league basis
• It requires a minimum of equipment; Stopwatch, measuring tape, standing long jump mat, 75m & 600m markers, and Vortex Howler throwing implement.
• It is a simple, effective and inclusive way of getting more children to participate in physical activity, helping LEAs and schools meet their National Curriculum Key Stage 2/3 targets
