 "A brilliant event!"
... "Awesome!"
... "I loved it!"
These are just a few of the comments made by people who took part in our
2010 It’s a Knockout Charity Challenge, raising funds and awareness, and
raising their own business profiles too. Take a
look at our film of the
event… We’re hoping Knockout 2011 will be even bigger and better.

Need:
Adult Teams (minimum 15
years) - 10 men and women (at least four of each) plus two subs

a team 'look'. Last year's looks included pirates, gladiators,
ToileTrolls and tartan tutus. Extra points for the best 2011 looks!
J
a team joker (card, figure, icon…). Extra points for the best jokers!
An event like Knockout is expensive to put on and the idea is raise
funds. We’re therefore suggesting:
J
a non-refundable entry donation of £300 per team payable on registration
J
sponsorship of at least £100 per team member (additional to the entry
donation) to be presented on the day (great photo opportunity) with
bonus points for the teams which raise even more

14 years) Entry subject to terms and conditions
J six children
(preferably a mix of boys and girls)
J we’re suggesting a non-refundable

J sponsorship is optional but we
hope children will wish to fundraise and there’ll be a prize for the
child who raises the most by the day of the event
