We have the opportunity to send teams to the following sports. We send both School teams and Elite teams to both the ISF World Schools Championships and the Gymnasiade (Under 15 and Under 18).
Many teams are selected by our members who are Schools Sports Associations or National Governing Bodies. Many sports have been incorporated into the Gymnasiade . There are two of these one for U15 and one for U18 held on alternate years.
We know that not every sport has a SSA or NGB, so if you are interested in competing then please click on the sport concerned below for more information.
Alternatively contact the Chair (chair@ncss.org.uk).
