According to the World Sport Stacking Association, sport stacking is an international, individual and team sport where participants stack up and stack down 12 specially designed cups in pre-determined sequences in tremendous speed.

Sport stacking, originally called “Cup Stacking,” began in the early 1980s, but it wasn’t until 1995 the sport caught the attention of Colorado PE Teacher Bob Fox, who held the state’s first Sport Stacking Tournament at his elementary school.
