PHOTO: Underwood Stacks Up to Guinness World Record

Underwood participated in the Guinness World Record for "Most People Sport Stacking at Multiple Locations in One Day."

Mr. Psaras, Underwood Elementary School’s P.E. teacher, led his students in the Guinness World Record for "Most People Sport Stacking at Multiple Locations in One Day."

Underwood School will be joining participants from all over the world in this united stacking effort.

Last year, 412,259 stackers participated to break the previous year’s Stack Up record. Sport stacking has been termed a “track meet for your hands at warp speed”.

It’s an exciting sport where students up stack and down stack twelve specially designed cups called Speed Stacks in predetermined sequences as fast as they can. Stackers race against the clock, compete in relays and combine sport stacking with fitness challenges as part of their physical education class.
