Now in its 3rd year, Top Trumps is busy planning the 2012 National Schools Top Trumps Tournament – and it promises to be a bumper year! All participating schools will receive the brand new Tournament game that focuses on the London 2012 Olympic Games – giving you all the facts and stats you could ever want to know!
What’s more, five time gold medallist, Sir Steve Redgrave, has agreed to be our ambassador for the Tournament this year and our winning Top Trumps Tournament Champion will get a once-in a lifetime rowing experience with the Olympic Champion himself!!
Taking part is easy. Once registered, schools simply run their own mini-Tournaments at school, as after-school or lunchtime clubs or as part of lesson time, to find their own school’s Top Trumps Champion. In March, School Champions will compete online to try to earn a place at the Grand Final in London, which takes place in May.

- The Government is encouraging schools to actively engage young children with the London 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games – what better way than by playing the London 2012 Top Trumps Tournament game?!
