Innovative Fundraising Ideas for Sports Day 2025

Sports Day isn’t just about competition—it’s also the perfect opportunity to raise money for your school’s PE department, sports equipment, or future events. Whether you’re looking for quick and easy ideas or something more creative, here are some exciting ways to turn Sports Day 2025 into a fundraising success.

Plus, we’ll introduce you to a zero-risk, high-reward fundraising option that requires no upfront costs—the Sports Gadget Shop!

1. Sponsored Sports Challenges

One of the simplest ways to raise funds is through sponsored activities. Pupils can collect sponsorships from family and friends for completing:

🏃‍♂️ A set number of laps around the track

⏳ A timed endurance challenge (e.g., skipping for 10 minutes)

⚽ A target-based challenge (e.g., scoring 10 goals in a row)

To make it even more engaging, turn it into a whole-school challenge—such as “Can we collectively run the distance of a marathon?” or “How many jumps can our school do in a day?”

💡 Tip: Set up a fundraising page online so parents and relatives can easily contribute!

2. Themed Raffle Draws

A Sports Day raffle can bring in big donations with minimal effort. Ask local businesses to donate prizes such as:

🎟️ Free sports club memberships

👟 Discount vouchers for sports gear

🍕 Meal vouchers for local restaurants

To make it even more exciting, include sports-related prizes like mini footballs, skipping ropes, or gadgets from the Sports Gadget Shop!

3. Sell Sports-Themed Snacks and Refreshments

Set up a refreshment stand with healthy snacks and sports drinks to keep energy levels high. You can sell:

🥤 Fruit smoothies

🍌 Energy-boosting snacks (bananas, granola bars)

🍉 Refreshing watermelon slices

Pro tip: Get creative with the naming! Try "Sprinter’s Smoothies" or "Champion’s Chews" to add a fun, sporty twist.

4. The ‘Beat the Teacher’ Challenge

Nothing excites pupils more than a friendly competition against their teachers! Set up a challenge where pupils can pay to:

🏸 Play a one-on-one game against a teacher

🏆 Race against a PE leader

🎯 Try to score a penalty against the headteacher

This fundraiser is always a hit and creates fantastic school spirit!
