The 'It's a Knockout' event is organised by Barlborough Parish Council each year. Local teams compete against each other in a series of challenging obstacle courses. It's a great afternoon's entertainment and always culminates in a nailbiting finish! In addition, to the competition there are lots of other attractions to grab your attention. Bozo the children's entertainer is always a big hit, particularly with the adults!

The 2005 'It's a Knockout' will be held on Sunday 24th July on Barlborough Country Park. The entrances for which are on Clowne Road and Slayley View Road.
