Virtual Together App

Have fun and be active together at school with the Virtual Together app!

The Virtual Together app (powered by Playwaze) has been developed for individuals, groups & teams to be able to take part in regular virtual school sport & physical activity challenges and competitions without having to leave their own school site.

The School Games, Team Leicestershire and Daily Boost communities within the app provide a long term digital school sport solution beyond the current situation that will enable us to embed an ongoing virtual offer alongside our annual event calendars.

The involvement of the local School Sport & Physical Activity Network (SSPANs) also means that schools and young people will be able to engage with local district (Inter school) challenges, the county-wide offer from us at Active Together and will also offer leadership opportunities within schools.

Please note that the Playwaze website and Playwaze mobile app platforms both adhere to all GDPR and data protection policies and procedures. Details of these can be found on both the website and mobile app (following entering a competition) and can also be found here.
