Street Sportz returns to Warwickshire this half term
Cricket, basketball and football are just some of the sports available to young people this half term thanks to Warwickshire County Council’s Positive about Young People programme.
From Monday 25 October to Friday 29 October, ‘Street Sportz’ returns across the county to offer 8 to 13-year-olds the opportunity to try any sport they like - providing the equipment is available.
One hour sessions will run at 21 locations in Rugby, Stratford, Nuneaton and Bedworth, Warwick and North Warwickshire.
Mark Bolton, Operations Development Manager for Warwickshire County Council’s Positive about Young People programme, said: “Street Sportz gives young people the opportunity to take part in something enjoyable over half term, while keeping fit and active.
“At the same time, the project helps them do something positive in the community while helping to reduce anti-social behaviour.”
Young people will need to provide their name, address and any medical information that the organisers should know about as well as emergency contact details before they start any session.
