HRH Prince Harry urges schools to sign up

HRH Prince Harry has recorded a video encouraging schools across Britain to sign up and be part of the 2013 School Games.

As well as prompting schools to take part in next year's event, the Prince reflects on the great success of the 2012 School Games and urges young people to discover a sporting habit that will last them a lifetime.

In May, over 1,600 young people from around Britain competed across 12 different sports at the Sainsbury’s 2012 School Games final, with much of the competition taking place in four Olympic venues including the Olympic Stadium, the Velodrome and Aquatics Centre

The finalists were some of the first athletes to use these venues and had achieved this honour after winning through the three earlier rounds of the School Games competition

Between 2010 - 2015 Sport England is investing over £35.5 million  into the School Games to help more young people discover a love of sport.
