2000 years ago, the ancient Greeks played a game they called simply 'The Labyrinth'.

Until recently, little has been known about the mysterious sport - only that it required the athletes to be blindfolded, and that eventually it was banned from their Olympics games.

Now, the rules for the labyrinth have been rediscovered - and for the first time in modern history, the world will learn to play the Labyrinth again.

You don't need to be an athlete to master this lost sport - it requires trust, courage, and collaboration. Learn to play or just come along to watch as The Lost Sport of Olympia is rediscovered in the UK!
