Last week, we welcomed along Kyle and Millie for their first sessions with us 😊 we hope you enjoyed it and we can't wait to have you back again!

At multisport, we celebrated the start of the World Cup 2026 by having our own World Cup themed evening, complete with decorations, goodie bags and football games! ⚽️🏆

We then started our boccia session with some target practice using the wedge and number mat - look at all those boccia balls on the 20! We then finished the evening with some game practice!

This Friday, we are re-visiting curling 🥌🔵⚪️🔴

All our sessions are free of charge and open to all ages and abilities. There is also no commitment to attend every week, just come and go as you please 😊

Now that the excitement of our awards night has died down, it's back to updates on our Friday night sessions!

Last week, we gave pickleball another go and incorporated a fun game into the mix! We moved onto our boccia warm-up drills and games to end the evening!

Coming up tonight is badminton! And for the rest of June we have World Cup themed football, movement to music and crazy gold to look forward to!

All our sessions are completely free of charge and open to all ages and abilities. There is also no commitment to attend every week, just come and go as you please 🙂
