Entertainment - What is Cup Stacking? (Sport?)

Cup stacking is an exciting individual and team sport where participants stack and unstack 12 specially designed plastic cups (Speed Stacks) in pre-determined sequences.

Individually, stackers race against the clock for fastest or best times. Stackers also compete on a relay team racing against another team in head-to-head competition.

With practice, a person can stack at lightning speed that has to be seen to be believed!

What is the sport used for?

Cup Stacking can be individualised, allowing each student to work to success at his/her own level. It is also geared to include students of all ability levels, allowing every student to succeed, while still challenging the more fit and athletic students.

Students learn not only how to be physically active, but WHY; and how to take personal responsibility for this critical aspect of their lives.

What does cup stacking do for me?

Cup stacking promotes many skills used in a number of other sports.

Increasing bilateral proficiency (equal performance on both sides of the body) develops a greater percentage of the right side of the brain which houses awareness, focus, creativity and rhythm.
