2 Welcome to Sporting Magic our Multi-Sports Events Challenge Badge. This challenge badge has been designed in such a way as it allows you to run a program of activities with girls of any age around either gymnastics or another sport or active activity of your choice. It was originally inspired by the FIG 2015 World Gymnastics Championships which took place in Glasgow in October 2015 and has been written with acknowledgement of the event organisers. However it has now been updated to make it easier to adapt to fit round other sporting events. The challenge is made up of five parts: 1. Prepare for your games 2. Team work 3. Healthy Living 4. Money 5. Research We would suggest that a minimum of 4-6 age and ability appropriate challenges are completed before the badge is awarded. To help you choose your activities, each one includes the Promise Badge for the section the activity is recommended for. Remember it is meant to be a challenge! Please us with estimated badge requirements as you start the challenge this will help us to manage our badge stock levels and should mean we have badges when you need them! We would love your feedback, please send your questions, comments or badge requirements to: the46thglasgowguides@outlook.com

6 Prepare for your games Uniforms Every sports team needs a kit it gives the team its sense of identity. Rainbows should colour in the template to design their own Brownies and younger Guides should try their hand at fabric painting identical designs on to plain t-shirts. Could Senior Section rise to the challenge of making outfits from scratch? When designing your uniform, think about the sport and what your sportsperson will need; will it need pockets to hold things? will it need sleeves? Think about what the outfits need to do. Page 1

7 Medals Part of the joy of winning is receiving a medal at the end. Make your own medals: Salt Dough Recipe: 1 cup salt 1 cup plain flour 3/4 cup water combine the flour and salt in a bowl add the water gradually knead the mixture until it becomes a dough-likeconsistency. if still too sticky add more flour, if it won t hold together well then more water, a teaspoon at a time. Roll the dough out to 1-2cm thick then cut out your medal shapeand decorate Place on a baking sheet and dry the medals in the oven at a very low temperature for between 1 2 hours. Once cooled you could paint your medals in gold, silver or bronze paints. You could have a discussion about what gold, silver and bronze means and which position you would prefer to be in? What does that mean for trying our best? Alternatively medals could be made from circles of the relevant coloured card with a hole punched for ribbon. Our brownies baked biscuits, cut holes for ribbon before baking them, and then iced them in the winning colours Page 2

8 Opening and Closing Ceremonies Every big sporting event has its own opening and closing ceremony. In your six/patrol plan your opening ceremony the more spectacular the better. You need costumes, music, a dance routine practice until you have it perfect. Think about the roles you will need to fill to run a successful event; the budget you have and how to spend it; what milestones does your project have to hit; have you thought about advertising and communication? Design a Poster Design a poster advertising your opening ceremony. Think about all the information your poster should have date, time, venue etc. Page 3

9 All over the world Athletes travel from all corners of the world. Why not try some of the activities or food ideas listed below from the five continents. As an extra, Rainbows and brownies could make their own pretend passport using the attached template. They should fill in their own details and then have the card stamped in each country they visit You could: Americas Food: Make S mores or Cocadas Blancas (see recipe below) Craft The rainforest in South America is home to a diverse range of plants and animals, especially parrots. Use the template to create beautiful, coloured parrots. We used scrunched-up tissue paper to create this colourful parrot. Page 4

10 Cocadas Blancas Cocadas Blancas are a popular street food sold on the streets and beaches of South America. You will need (to make about 12 biscuits): 1 cup of shredded coconut fresh or store bought ¾ cup of cater sugar 1 ½ cups of coconut water ¼ cup of whole milk Pinch of cinnamon powder Page 5 Saucepan Wooden spoon Baking tray Parchment paper Place all the ingredients in a pot. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes or until thickened. Stir often with a wooden spoon to prevent the coconut mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Drop small amounts of the mixture onto the baking tray lined with parchment paper, spacing them 2 inches apart. Let cool completely. Store them in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Samba Learn a Samba dance (you can listen to Samba music for free at ) The official Championships Dance for the FIG 2015 World Gymnastics Championships has a Samba rhythm and could be performed at your opening ceremony. You can find the dance at the following link

11 Could the Guides/Senior Section film theirs and really make it perfect - edit and retake the film as required? Drums and maracas play a large part in Samba music. You could make your own drums out of everyday objects plant-pots, tupperware containers anything you can strike to keep a rhythm. Is there a Samba group local to your area? You could invite them along to give a workshop. To make mini tin can drums you will need tin cans (washed and the labels taken off). Ballons, glue and paints and glitter to decorate. We used chop-sticks as drumsticks. Can you beat out a samba beat? Do you drums all sound alike? The Carnival is bright and flamboyant the brighter the better and lots of glitter is a must. For a quick and simple Carnival mask, draw around your hands and decorate and then attach with a straw. Alternatively, you could decorate the template at the back of the pack. Carnival headdresses are bright and full of colour. Use feathers, pipecleaners and of course glitter to make magical, showy headdresses the bigger the better! Page 6

12 Europe Food: Why not have a pasta night, or make Hungarian Goulash or Backlava, a popular sweet from Turkey Craft: Windmills made from toilet paper rolls, Polish Wycinanki folk art cut outs using the templates at the end of the pack. Page 7

13 Asia Food: Nan bread, fried rice, stir-fry Craft: India is home to almost 60% of the world s tigers. Make tiger masks from paper plates, or a tiger puppet from a paper bag. Africa Food: Malian Ginger Juice (blend the root ginger in a cup of water, combine the squeezed ginger juice with lemon juice and sugar to taste and dilute with water. Serve with mint leaves). Shuku Shuku is a popular sweet from Nigeria (pre-heat your oven to 180 / gas mark 4; mix together 100g of desiccated coconut, 50g caster sugar, 3 egg yolks and 60g of self-raising flour and shape into balls on a baking tray and bake until golden brown) Craft African drums made from drinking cups. Jewellery: colourful Maasai necklaces made from paper plates or using red/orange/sandy brown beads. African rain sticks (at random intervals tap small nails into sturdy decorated tube, fill with rice, couscous, beads, macaroni etc.) Australasia Food: Anzac Biscuits Page 8 85g porridge oat 85g desiccated coconut 100g plain flour 100g caster sugar 100g butter, plus extra butter for greasing 1 tbsp golden syrup 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Put the oats, coconut, flour and sugar in a bowl. Melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the golden syrup. Add the bicarbonate of soda to 2 tbsp boiling

14 water, then stir into the golden syrup and butter mixture. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the butter and golden syrup mixture. Stir gently to incorporate the dry ingredients. Put dessert spoonfuls of the mixture on to buttered baking sheets, about 2.5cm/1in apart to allow room for spreading. Bake in batches for 8-10 mins until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. (Recipe from the Good Food Magazine) Fairy Bread Fairy bread is a popular snack in Australia. Simply coat thickly buttered white bread with hundreds and thousands and enjoy the sugar rush! Page 9

15 Dot Paintings Dot paintings are an integral part of Aboriginal culture. Originally these were made in the sand which could be swept away when a ritual, or ceremony was over. Dot paintings often depicted animals or scenes from Dreamtime [Dreamtime is the Aboriginal belief of the time the spirits (or Ancestors) made people, the sky and the earth and all the things in it. Dreamtime maps are used in rituals to point the way to rivers and valleys and sources of food. Before Dreamtime, there was nothing.] We used pebbles from a local stream and talked about how we could protect the environment. Add some PVA glue to paint to help the paint stick. Aussie Quiz Think you know about Australia try this quiz 1. A traditional Easter treat in the U.S. is a chocolate bunny. What chocolate likeness is popular in Australia? Bilby (a long-eared marsupial, apparently Australia doesn t like rabbits because they multiply like crazy and eat all the crops) 2. Most British convicts who were sent to the penal colony of Australia had been found guilty of what type of crimes? Petty theft (anything more serious usually meant death by hanging) Page 10

16 3. Australia is home to the largest structure built by living organisms on the planet. What is it? Great Barrier Reef (consists of 2800 separate reefs and covers 135,000 square miles, an expanse greater than Poland) 4. Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt disappeared in December 1967 while doing what? A: running a marathon B: swimming in the ocean C: taking a helicopter tour D: hiking in the outback (dove into the high tide in Melbourne and was never seen again) 5. A local delicacy, Vegemite is a spread made from what ingredient? Yeast (made of brewer s yeast and malt extract, urgh) Page 11

17 Team Work Medals are awarded in championships for individual events and athletes are striving for Gold. Nations, however also enter teams to compete = each person has to play their part in the team to ensure they maximise their points. Team work is therefore very important and an integral part of any sporting event. Build Your Teams Challenge the girls to find out what they can about their chosen country where it is, its currency, its language (can they learn to count to 10?), and whether there is any Guiding presence in it put on a display about it? Make Flags --- these could be simple cardboard flags, coloured in and attached to pencils or garden canes or you could make collages using a flag template and gluing lentils, pasta, coloured tissue paper etc in the relevant colours to your template. Design a mascot -could you make it? An easy alternative would be to dress a teddy in the appropriate colours. What about a sock animal? Do you already have a unit mascot? make it a new outfit! Page 12

18 Team Player Have a discussion with your unit about what makes a good team player. Make up or review your own team rules (unit guidelines) and then try some of the following team building activities: Tie a Knot In groups of between 5 and 10 stand in a circle. Each person should reach across the circle with one hand and grab hold on to another hand. Then do the same with your other hand but hold the hand of someone else. The team should now try and untangle themselves so that they are standing in a circle but they must not let go of the hands to do it. Page 13

19 French Pleat In teams of a minimum of four - one with long hair One person volunteers to have their hair done, the others hold hands and stand in a straight line. They should then attempt to French pleat the volunteer s hair without letting go (i.e. using the left hand of one person and the right hand of the person at the other end of the line) Caterpillar game a race Divide the girls into teams of between 3 and 7 get them to choose a team name. They should then stand one behind each other at one end of your playing space and put both hands on the shoulders of the person in front. They must not let go. They are then going to race to the other end of the playing space but only one person can move at a time using a hopping action. The first person hops forward (remembering they can only go as far as the person behind can reach as they must remain attached), Then the second person hops, then the third and so on to end of team person at end shouts team name and the team then starts the process again and keeps repeating until they reach the finish line. Page 14

20 Get through the circle Give each patrol or six some A4 paper and tell them they must cut a hole in it large enough for the whole group to step through. This is how it could be done: Fold a4 piece of paper in half. Working from fold cut it into strips about an inch wide - but do not cut right to top (leave about half inch). Then turn round and do same - cutting each strip in half from open edge to almost top. Then open out and cut along the fold of all but the outside strip at each end. Page 15

21 Friendship Bracelets Major sporting events bring people from all over the world together in the name of sport. So why not make a friendship bracelet. You will need: Embroidery thread or wool sticky tape Cut equal lengths of embroidery thread three different colours. Tie a loop in the middle, using your pinkie double knot. Stick the thread to a table with tape. Lay out the threads in a mirror image of each other. Bring the first righthand thread (in this case, yellow) into the middle. Cross over the left-hand thread into the middle and pull tight. Again, cross the next colour into the middle (the blue thread) and repeat with the third colour. Continue pleating until you have your desired length. Tie the ends together and thread through the loop to finish. Page 16

22 Raising the Roof All teams need supporters to cheer them on when they re winning and cheer them up when they re not. Make some pom-poms from plastic bags (you could also have a chat about recycling and the environment) and make up a cheerleading chant to inspire your team. You could also make some maracas and shakers to make some noise! Some tips: You can use just about anything; plastic drinks bottles with long necks work well. Fill your shakers with a variety of materials. Dried peas and beans will make heavier noises; barely, lentils and rice will make softer ones. Decorate in your team colours, cover them in ribbons, tissue paper Wear it with Pride Many supporters when attending events paint their face with their countries flag. Research different flags and have a go at face painting flags on your cheeks or if you are brave enough your entire face! Remember to check if anyone has allergies before taking part in thisactivity. Page 17

23 Role Models Role models are important especially in sport. Does anyone in your six, patrol or unit have a sporting role model? Why do they look up to this athlete? What makes them stand out against others? Page 18

24 Healthy Living Athletes cannot compete at the highest levels without looking after their bodies. They need to ensure that they eat healthily and get plenty of rest. They don t begin their careers super fit it has to be worked on and built up gradually. Ideally it should also be fun! Food Diary Keep a record of what you eat from each food group over a week use the template at the end of this pack. As six/ patrol discuss the results are you eating healthily? What could be done to improve this? Brownies could complete their healthy heart badge! Page 19

25 Smoothies Smoothies are terrific snacks containing lots of vitamins and nutrients and are colourful and tasty too. There s no limit to fruit and veg you can put in a smoothie; you can also use fresh or frozen fruit (no need for ice!). You don t have to have a smoothie making machine or a blender, consider combining different fruit juices with ice or cream. Here are some our favourites: Strawberry and Banana Smoothie (Strawberries, Banana, low-fat yoghurt, milk, vanilla extract, ice blend together) Mango Smoothie (Mango, low-fat yoghurt, milk, clear honey, cardamom seeds [optional] peel the mango and blitz with the other ingredients in a blender) All-fruit Smoothie (Blueberries, apples, raspberries, seedless grapes, caster sugar, ice blend together) Fruit Kebabs Fruit kebabs are also great. Use your favourite fruit to make the kebabs. To add a hint of luxury, using a fork, dribble melted chocolate over the kebabs. Page 20

26 Food for Fuel Older Guides and Senior Section Members could make a healthy light meal that would be suitable for a pre-training snack. Why not consider making tuna pasta, couscous or even a Spanish omelette. How would you adapt the recipes to increase your protein and energy levels? Page 21

27 Exercise Complete each of the exercises shown on the template at the end of the pack. Could you practice over a six-week period and see how you improve? The Floor exercises in gymnastics are all about telling a story. Could you select a piece of music that is no more than a minute long and choreograph a simple routine for it perhaps you could teach your six or patrol it and then perform for the unit? Remember gymnasts are scored on their performances (difficulty and execution). Each gymnast starts with a score of 10 and points are deducted for faults (such as bent arms and legs, falls etc). Don t forget to give scores! Alternatively, if you don t have access to music make up your own gymnastics routine including at least six different moves- rolls, jumps, balances etc. Fuchi (Footbag) Fuchi is a very popular, freestyle sport in South America, where you use your feet to perform tricks (keepie-upies) with a ball or beanbag without letting the bag touch the ground. Why don t you have a competition to see which patrol can keep the bag up for the longest. Be creative, the only rule is that the bag cannot touch the ground. Page 22

28 GOAL Athletes are very driven to do what they do and are motivated to train hard and do well in their chosen fields. What motivates you? Sports people set themselves goals to push themselves to achieve these can be short or long term goals. Knowing and sticking to your goals help you make the most of your life and can help you identify the things you enjoy and the things you may have to work a little harder on. Start first the the bigger picture your life goals what do want to do with your life or at least the next 10 years? This could inside or outside Guides. Then break these goals into smaller, short-terms goals which will help you to achieve your bigger goals. Set goals that motivate you that you enjoy and that you can achieve (think of how satisfying ticking your goals off as you achieve them). Make sure your goals are SMART Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Relevant, Time Bound (have a deadline so you are able to tick them off). Write them down the physical act of writing something down solidifies the goal, making it real and tangible. Frame them in a positive way. Work out a plan of action. Stick to it! Page 23

29 Set the tone Many athletes before the perform listen to motivational music to get them into the zone prior to the event. As a patrol or unit decide on your motivational soundtrack. What style of music have you picked and why? How do the songs make you feel? Practice Makes Perfect Every athlete is always striving to improve their performance to be the best they can be. We may not all be world class athletes but we can still set ourselves goals to improve. Have a session where the girls try various activities and keep records of how successful they are. Challenge them to practice and then repeat the session in a few weeks and see if they have improved. Keep it simple it should be fun: how many times can you: catch a ball do star jumps skip how fast can you run round a set area ( if doing this outside take carere roads etc) Page 24

30 Run your own sports /fun event This could be within your own unit or could you challenge other units and have a district / division event? Why not do a round robin with lots of very short events some serious and some just silly? You could: Track Running over set distance Three legged race Egg and spoon race Relay race (make your own batons first) Field Chuck the wellie High jump using elastic ropes Discus (how far can you throw a paper plate or aeroplane) Pool Flap a fish (newspaper) Hook a duck (from paddling pool) Or if you are outside and don t mind a bit of mess fill a bucket or paddling pool with a mixture of water and cornflour and submerge different sized plastic fish (or any other suitable objects we made coloured stars and laminated them) then have a team race where one person from each team runs at a time and has to try and find the objects smaller ones having higher point values. The winning team being the one with the most points at the end. We first played this inside it was a messy mistake! Page 25

31 Women in Sport It is a well-known fact that women s participation in sport rapidly decreases as they become older discuss with your patrol or unit the possible reasons for this? What could be done to reverse this trend? Try it Try a new activity with your unit could you go to a local sports centre and try a fitness class or if this is not possible could you go out for a walk or run as a unit? Why not have an instructor visit the unit for the evening this could be a Zumba instructor, Yoga Instructor or why not even try karate! Access all areas Many multi-sport events also celebrate disabled athletes (Paralympians). Talk about the barriers disabled athletes face in sport. Running (or walking) in someone else s shoes is a good way to understand their perspective. Research the Paralympic movement and give a presentation on a favourite Paralympian. Page 26

32 Rest and relaxation Athletes when training use up a lot of energy therefore it is important that they ensure their body has enough rest and recovery. Our bodies do most of its recovery whilst we are sleeping. In order to get good night s sleep, it is important to relax before bedtime. Bath Bombs Gather your ingredients: 1 part citric acid 2 parts baking soda Witch Hazel Colouring of your choice Fragrance of your choice Shaped Moulds 1. Blend the citric acid and baking soda this step is super important if you don t blend well, you end up with a grainy bomb. 2. Once you ve blended really well, add your colorant. Dry pigments work best don t add too much though the color shows up once you add the witch hazel. 3. Add fragrance oils to your personal nosepreference. Now, this is the difficult part. Spritz (with a squirt bottle) the witch hazel onto your batch while stirring with the other hand. When your batch sticks together when squished, you need to start putting it in molds time is of the essence. If you wait too long, the mixture will get hard. If you spritz too much, the mixture will be too wet and grow (start the fizzing reaction) on you. Put the bombs in molds wait a few minutes and tap them out. Let them air dry for 3 or 4 hours and voila! Wonderful, hard Page 27

33 bath bombs. The harder you pack the bath bombs, the more dense, heavy, and durable bomb you will get. Soap on a Rope Here's what you need: Bar of pure soap, Liquid food colouring Vegetable oil Water Vegetable grater Bowl Wax paper Measuring cup Optional: Plastic soap molds, string, herbs, small cookie cutters 1. Grate bar of soap into the bowl. Fine shavings workbest 2. Put a few drops of food coloring into 1/3 cup of water. Add the colored water to the bowl. With your hands, mix the contents of the bowl untilit forms the consistency of play dough. 3. Rub a few drops of oil between the palms of your clean hands. (If you don't use oil, the soaps will stick to your hands and have a textured surface see soaps pictured to the right.) 4. Shape the soap dough into several small balls or any shape you like. Cut a piece of string and tie the ends together. Push the knotted end gently into your finished soap. 5. Place the soaps on a sheet of wax paper and let dry overnight. Tip: Make shaped soap with plastic soap moulds. Press soap dough into lightly greased moulds. Let set up overnight before unmoulding. Page 28

34 Face masks Avocado Banana Mask 1/2 banana 1/2 avocado 2 Tablespoons plain yogurt Blend ingredients in blender or food processor until blended. Apply to face and let sit 5-10 minutes. Apricot mask 2 apricots, pureed 2 Tablespoons plain yogurt Stir together pureed apricots and yogurt. Apply to face and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Hot Chocolate Ingredients 1 vanilla pod, split and seeds scraped out 1 cinnamon stick 1 litre/1¾ pints milk 150g/5½oz plain chocolate, chopped into small pieces sugar, to taste freshly grated nutmeg, for dusting Page 29

35 Preparation method 1. Heat the vanilla pod and seeds, cinnamon stick and milk in a saucepan until boiling. 2. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate pieces, stirring until the chocolate melts. 3. Whisk the hot chocolate vigorously until frothy on top and add sugar, to taste. Serve with a dusting of nutmeg. Page 30

36 Fun and Games GROW Every athlete or team has a coach who will ensure they have all the skills to participate in their chosen sport. Athletes need to listen very carefully to instructions to ensure they perform at their best. At your unit meeting have a games night could each six or patrol plan and lead a game? Remember to give clear instructions at the start of the game and at the end if you have noticed anything the participants could have done better give some feedback before you play the game again. Was there any improvements? Stalls and Games Can you produce your own side shows for your event? Bottles of water can be knocked off sticks using bean bags thrown from a distance colour the water and give different points values for different colours Similarly, empty tin cans can be stacked in pyramids and knocked with a ball Someone could have a batton and aim to hit a bean bag thrown by someone else Can you get hold of a hoopla set? Page 31

37 Money All big sports events, or indeed events of every kind have to set a budget and stick to it. This section aims to help you understand the financial considerations. Budgets Work out the budget to take your unit to a sports event - remember to include the cost of travel, tickets, food, accommodation and souvenirs. Could you fund raise to go? Big sporting events are often held at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow. What is the quickest and cheapest way to get there from you Unit meeting place? Do the same but to a venue close to your home/ meeting place. As a group plan a bid as to why your patrol /six should be chosen to host an event. It could be a sporting event, end of term party etc Seniors could develop a virtual events management company to produce a events plan needed to support a major sporting event. Think about what this could involve branding, communication, logistics, staffing etc. Identify jobs in event management or the skills needed to carry out those jobs successfully. Page 32

38 Complete the number fun badge Plan the next month s activities for your patrol do your subscriptions cover it? Page 33

39 Research Many sporting events have taken place across the world on a regular basis for decades. Many cities and countries have proudly hosted both World and European championships and for athletes being selected to compete is a huge honour. Researching the history of the event helps us to understand which athletes have been good enough to compete, to win medals and become part of Championship history. Research the history of any major Sporting Event. Try to find out: 1. Which nation has won the most Gold medals 2. How many countries have won a medal in the history of your chosenevent 3. How many British athletes have won a medal at your event and whothey are 4. Who were the medalists at the last World Gymnastics Championships in 2015, or the Olympics in Who the youngest and oldest athletes to have won gold in a fieldevent Page 34

40 Host Cities Research 5 previous host countries and put on a display. Include information about: 1. Flag 2. Population 3. National dress 4. Customs 5. Food 6. Girlguiding Perhaps the Senior Section could cook some of these traditional dishes? Your City as Host The Organisers of large sporting events take a lot of things into consideration when it decides on which city to host are there enough suitable venues? How will competitors travel around the city? Is there enough accommodation? Do some research and put together a pack or brochure or poster explaining why your home town or nearest city would be a great choice to host an international sporting event. Page 35

41 This sporting life Choose a famous sports person and write their biography. Present it in an interesting way. Remember to include 1. Their name, date of birth and where they were born 2. The sport they compete in 3. What got them into it 4. What countries they have travelled to compete 5. How many medals they have won Interviewing Choose an athlete and prepare questions you could ask them in a television interview. For inspiration, you could watch past interviews with sports people on YouTube. Page 36

42 Advertisements All big events are Advertised- think about how they attract athletes and spectators. Could you put this into practice and either advertise a fund-raising event for your unit or try and grow guiding by advertising for new members (remember not to advertise the actual place and time just a contact phone number) Page 37
