    “Taking silly very seriously”
    “Taking silly very seriously” is the motto of the world’s most surreal sports event. Taking place in Cork City, Ireland, this summer, the inaugural Paddy Games invites every animal and human around the world to compete in bizarre sports and break new records...but not many conventional ones.

    Inspired by Ireland and held in Cork’s Mardyke Arena on 14th August, 2010, the programme includes challenges such as the backwards 100m, blindfold sprint, mobile phone throwing, inter-species relay and the pogo stick high jump.

    Paddy Games is the theatre where a whole new breed of sports-star is born, affording participants the opportunity to win gold for their country and rejoice in their innate right to be their very own hero while freshening up the world’s sports calendar. After all, who was it that decided we should jump over the hurdles and not under them; be prohibited from racing backwards or crawling and deny the doggy-paddle as a swimming stroke?

    Athletes, sporties, adventurers, daredevils, musclemen, pioneers, dogs as well as goats, both champs and rookies, are invited to compete in the Paddy Games and can now register online at www.paddygames.ie. The wide range of sports events will attract participants with all kinds of backgrounds; from marathon runners and hurdle sprinters to Irish dancers and doggy trainers. Places are limited so register now!

    Are you game? Come to Cork this summer where backwards is the new forwards!
