Saturday 11th July 2009
A message from Games Life President, Campbell Lyon
Welcome to the website of the Famous Alva Games. Alva Games are the last surviving sports and games to be run in Clackmannanshire. Now having just celebrated their 152nd renewal, always held on the second Saturday in July and the highlight of the summer’s events in the county, the games feature the full range of traditional events including athletics, cycling, highland dancing, heavy weight events and the crowning glory of games day, the four hill races run over Torry for competitors from under 12 all the way up to the British Championship Hill Race run at about 4.15pm. The traditional fair operates every evening from the Wednesday prior to the games from 6pm until 10pm daily and on games day itself from 12 noon. Our youth five a side football tournament has now made a hugely successful return to the games field on the Thursday prior to the Games.
