Rotary in the South West have agreed a partnership with the South West Youth Games Trust to support their events through to the 2019 season.

Rotary have previously supported the games in 2015 and 2016 and have renewed their support for 2018 and 2019. 

The games are the largest youth community sports event in the region and are celebrating their 20th edition this year.

The annual multi-sport event was launched as the Devon Youth Games in 1999 and has since expanded across the South West to include teams from Cornwall and every Devon district competing in 20 sports.

Around 10,000 young people aged 8-18, both able-bodied and disabled take part in the games each year.
