Modified Sports such as Fast 5 Netball, Backyard Cricket, Rippa Rugby, Kī o Rahi, Football, beach sports and many more feature over the week. The structure of each day varies and can feature between 1-3 different sports.
Modified Sports Week is an interschool event which involves all 17 secondary schools including three Kura Kaupapa. The modified sports days are shared around the region, alternating between North and South and each day sees over 300 students at a different school or sports ground in Taranaki. The emphasis is on participation and for students to learn those values associated with sport such as confidence, inclusiveness, self-management and relating to others. Students like the dress up element and music which adds to the fun factor of TSSSA Modified Sports Week.
