Knot A Sports Day is a spin on the classic sports day with activities for people of all levels. To come out on top, teams need to work together to rise to the challenges and claim the coveted winner’s trophy and bragging rights.

Matt Hustwit, Head of Business Development at DJH says,
“Community is one of DJH’s core values, so seeing the best of Staffordshire come together, all while raising money for brilliant local causes, is something we genuinely look forward to. It’s a day that reminds us of what teamwork looks like beyond the office, and we love being part of it.”
This year’s event will feature classic favourites such as a pedal kart derby, wheelbarrow races, the egg & spoon race plus to celebrate the World Cup, a series of football-themed challenges are being added to the roster, including a penalty shootout competition.
Fiona Hawkins, MD at Plinkfizz and co-founder of Knot A Sports Day added,
