We have found that a Cascade competition is a very efficient way to introduce Particle Physics concepts and experiments to a wide range of students. Small groups of students research, prepare and deliver a short presentation to other students.

All the material that we have used for these competitions is freely available on the web which we hope will make it easier for more groups to try similar competitions in the future.
