Teams wanted for hospital charity 'It's a Knockout' competition
Back in the 1970s, It’s A Knockout was one of the most popular family game shows on TV - it was essentially a sports day for adults.
Now, Harrogate Hospital and Community Charity (HHCC) is inviting friends, families and work colleagues to take part in its version in June.
Teams of 10 entrants will battle it out on an It's a Knockout inflatable assault course at Harrogate Railway Athletic Football Club on Sunday, June 5.
An 'Around the World in 80 Days' challenge of wacky games will see contestants face water and foam in their quest to be crowned champion.
Community spirit
Sammy Lambert, business development, charity and volunteer manager, said:
Members of the community have the chance to rise to the challenge or come and support their team.

The event forms part of this year's Summer Extravaganza, which will raise funds for NHS services at Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.
It will include a range of shopping stalls, summer game stands, a bar and barbecue.
Entry to It’s A Knockout Game is £30 per person. Participants must be over 16 and each registration includes entry to the Summer Extravaganza.
Challengers can sign up as an individual or as part of a team. Teams will be entered into one of three groups, with limited availability.
Tickets
Tickets for entry to the Summer Extravaganza are available for a donation of £2 for adults and children over the age of five. Children under the age of five go free.
Register for It’s A Knockout or buy tickets by emailing hdft.hhcc@nhs.net or visit the HHCC website.
