Editor's ChoiceSpectators will flock to the annual Cotswold Olimpick Games once again in June 2022, where they can expect weird and wonderful sporting trials such as the famous shin-kicking competition.
Dating back to the early 1600s, the unmissable event will take place in the natural amphitheatre of Chipping Campden’s Dover’s Hill on Friday 3 June 2022.
For competitive kids, there’s the half mile Junior Circuit run; whilst adults will get drenched in the Championship of the Hill race; and there’s a chance to test your strength in the Tug O’War competition; with the shin-kicking always inducing plenty of winces from the crowd!
Robert Dover’s Cotswold Olimpick Games will also feature fireworks, a torchlit procession, bands marching and cannons firing in this unmissable highlight in the Cotswolds calendar.
