The Sport's and Active Lifestyle team here at the council have a brilliant opportunity if your interested in setting up a 6 week American Football or Basketball programme. There is funding available however it is limited so it will be on a first come, first serve basis. Both sports are delivered as non contact so cater for both male and female participants, the other benefit of both is that there is a position for everyone on the pitch/ court regardless of fitness, ability or body type.
Delivery needs to take place between October 2012 - March 2013 and must target those aged 16 - 25. Please get in touch with Lisa lisa.perryman@n-somerset.gov.uk for more information.
And finally, have you ever wanted to be able to see all activities local to you on a google map? Plings is a website directory with the ability to search from your chosen criteria and plot activities near you... worth a look. Let me know what you think of it in the comments below...
Hope you all have a nice weekend,

Well... it's not very up to date for a start! I've just searched for tennis, gymnastics, cricket and yoga which are all activities I know go on around WsM and not one of them are on Plings... I've just searched for both tennis and cricket on http://www.n-somersetcsd.org.uk and both Weston Tennis Club and Weston Cricket Club show in their search results. So why hasn't this information been transferred over to Plings I wonder?
ReplyDeleteFirst instinct - it's unreliable and not up to date. But if it was relaible and up to date, it'd be fantastic.
Do you know who updates it? Can individuals/organisations update the map with their own information? Maybe the LCN could have a role in reminding local service providers to do this if so.
