What is Sport Stacking?
Sport stacking is an exciting individual and team sport where participants stack and unstack 12 specially designed plastic cups (Speed Stacks) in pre-determined sequences.
Individually, stackers race against the clock for fastest or best times. Stackers also compete on a relay team racing against another team in head-to-head competition.
With practice, a person can stack at lightning speed that has to be seen to be believed!
What is the sport used for?
Sport Stacking can be individualized, allowing each child to work to success at his/her own level. It is also geared to include children of all ability levels, allowing every child to succeed, while still challenging the more fit and athletic children.
Children learn not only how to be physically active, but WHY; and how to take personal responsibility for this critical aspect of their lives.
Increasing bilateral proficiency (equal performance on both sides of the body) develops a greater percentage of the right side of the brain which houses awareness, focus, creativity and rhythm.
What does sport stacking do for me? Sport stacking promotes many skills used in a number of other sports.
