Young people get active this autumn

Group cyclistsMalvern Hills District Council’s Sports Development team is promoting a new range of sports activities as part of the Sportivate and Sport Inspired initiatives.  Cycling, Dodgeball, Street Dance, Street Soccer and Gym Membership are new activities available this autumn to young people aged 5-25. All activities will be commencing the week of Monday 7th November. Visit malvernhills.gov.uk/sportinspired or malvernhills.gov.uk/sportivate  for further detail.

The projects aim to get more young people interested in sport and encourage them to try out new activities. Professional coaches will be on hand for these projects that are being held at local venues. The Sportivate programme is delivered in partnership with the Sports Partnership Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

CouncillorBarbara Williams, Portfolio Holder for Community & Economic Development at MHDC stated:

“These sports programmes offer young people living in the area excellent opportunities to try out new sports and activities that they might otherwise never think to try. This is a great way to engage children and young people in sport and so encourage them to be more active and lead healthier lifestyles.”

To book places on these projects contact the Worcestershire Hub on 01684 862151 or email worcestershirehub@malvernhills.gov.uk
