Which dolts came up with the sickly moniker “Devon Games To Inspire” the new name for Devon Youth Games?
If there ever is a reason to cite out-of-touch organisers intent on their own worthiness, then it’s with the emotive fiddling with phrases with their newspeak hats on. Talk about dumbing down.
But let’s think of those taking part in the sporting activities, rather than the buffoons who think of the new asinine names of these events (hopefully no-one claimed expenses to attend that ‘blue-sky brainstorming’). The games takes place on Sunday, July 5, in Barnstaple.
Sport is difficult to package: it inspires involvement and rewards success, while promoting health and well-being along with individual responsibility and teamwork. Organised well, especially at a youth level, sporting activity can wonderfully encompass all this.
The event itself is a collaboration between a whole load of organisations, and that could be where the problem of uninspired committee thinking comes in. Great idea.
Shame the new name is just naff.
