This month for the first time, more than 400 servicemen and women – both serving and veteran – from 14 nations will meet at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park for the inaugural Invictus Games. The spotlight will be on them to champion their indefatigable drive to overcome, along with their tenacious attitude to achieve post-injury.
The brainchild of Prince Harry, the Invictus Games is an international sports event for wounded, injured and sick service personnel taking place from 10-14 September 2014. Most of the tickets for these games have been long sold out. But I’ve teamed up with Invictus sponsor Jaguar to offer a few lucky readers free pairs of tickets to some of the key competitions. Are you #ready? Keep reading!
Compliments of Jaguar – proud supporter of ex-serviceman and women and presenting partner of the 2014 Invictus Games – I’ve got a couple of pairs of tickets to the following events to give away:
- 2 tickets to Wheelchair Rugby
- 2 tickets to Swimming (Sold Out)
Interested? To be in with a chance to win, simply leave a comment here on this post explaining why you deserve to win the tix. Alternatively, you can tweet me with the hashtag #ready telling me why I should give the tickets to you.

I’ll pick winners at random on Wednesday 3 September at 16.00 BST. Yes, that’s this Wednesday! So get #ready and get cracking ASAP! Good luck.

As an ex-army wife I saw all too often the horrors of war and the life changing injuries our friends came home with every single tour. To see these servicemen turn their lives around in such a positive way after such horrific injuries is truly humbling and awe inspiring. I would LOVE to watch them compete as it would remind me that some positives can come out of something so horrific.
Thanks Danille,
It certainly sounds like you would fully appreciate the tickets to the Invictus Games. I’ll announce the winners on Wednesday afternoon. Stay tuned!

Hear! Hear!
Love to win to take my Daughter to show her how lucky she is and how strong and brave some people are]
Great idea, Mark. Thanks for your comment.
No idea why I in particular would deserve these tickets, but I would love to support these incredibly brave and inspiring individuals. The chance to see some great sport and this venue at the same time would be a great bonus.
Best of luck with the competition, Clive! I’ll be picking the winners tomorrow afternoon 🙂
I would like to get the tickets as I am a good citizen of the United Kingdom and I would really enjoy the games.
I love it! Thanks Petra 🙂
This is something to be part of, an event that will stay with me (if I am able to attend) in all things that I have to gain motivation to do. Like the Olympics. Sometimes in life, when it’s tough, you need inspiration from amazing people just to give you that kick up the ass!! I need a good kick up the ass If I win, my marathon run on Sunday will be run with a spring in my step 🙂
Lovely sentiment, Claire. Thank you!
About to pick my winners!!!
