Any 3rd - 5th grade Alcott student is welcome to come join us for competitive Speed Stacking.  Students learned the basics of speed stacking in PE class but here is an opportunity to further develop those skills.  Participants will learn different competition stacks and practice timing themselves.  We will also make relay teams that compete against each other.  At the end of the season we will have a tournament in the afternoon that parents and siblings can come and watch.


Some students have their own set of cups, but anyone who needs a set will be allowed  to borrow a set to take home for practice.
