Get Active! Basingstoke's sporting community welcomes new members

One way to ‘Get Active’ is to take part in Sporting Activities either as a competitor, official, coach or general volunteer. Basingstoke & Deane has a very active Sporting community which welcomes new members and if looking for more details, check out the county website for information on our local clubs.

During Get Active week a few local clubs are opening doors to allow potential new members to drop in and see what’s on offer, perhaps join in a taster session or chat to officials and see if there is a role for you. Details on each event will be published on each relevant website over the next few weeks.
