Sports Centre holiday schemes


Lifestyle | Article


A summer of fun lies ahead for youngsters who attend the holiday schemes at Bushfield Sports Centre and Werrington Sports Centre from Monday 27 July 2009 to Friday 28 August 2009.

The schemes are run by Peterborough City Council’s sports development team and will offer a packed schedule of arts and crafts, sports, games and other fun activities for boys and girls aged between eight and 14-years-old. It will run from Mondays to Fridays from 8.30am to 5pm.

Sporty youngsters will be able to enjoy activities including dodge ball, ultimate Frisbee, football, netball and basketball. Those who prefer arts and crafts have the choice of painting, model-making, mosaic and collage-making or taking part in a talent show.

Sessions are £20 a day or £75 per week. To book your place, or for more information about the schemes, contact Werrington Sports Centre on (01733) 576606, or Bushfield Sports Centre on (01733) 234018.

The city council's sports development team are also running Sports X-travaganza sessions throughout the school summer holidays. The sessions are a mixture of sports and games for youngsters aged between eight and 14-years-old and will run on Mondays through to Thursdays from Monday 20 July 2009 to Thursday 3 September 2009.

The same programme will run each week as follows:

  • Monday 11.30am to 12.30pm: bowling at AMF in Bretton;

  • Monday 1.30pm to 3pm: Sports X-travaganza at Bushfield Sports Centre;

  • Tuesday 11.30am to 12.30pm: health and fitness session at Bushfield Sports Centre;

  • Tuesday 1.30pm to 3pm: Sports X-travaganza at Bushfield Sports Centre;

  • Wednesday 11.30am to 12.30pm: street dance at Bushfield Sports Centre;

  • Wednesday 1.30pm to 3pm: Sports X-travaganza at Bushfield Sports Centre

  • Thursday 10am to 12.30pm: fishing at Decoy Lakes, Whittlesey;

  • Thursday 1.30pm to 3pm: Sports X-travaganza at Bushfield Sports Centre.

Activities are designed for all youngsters regardless of their physical, learning or sensory ability.

All sessions are £2 per person. Activities are only available for full weeks and there will be no sessions on August Bank Holiday Monday (31 August 2009).

Scott Beasley, city council sports development officer, said: "There are a wide range of sports and crafts activities available for youngsters this summer, both in the holiday schemes and through the Sports X-travaganza. This is a great opportunity for children to come along and get involved, and take part in activities they might not normally consider."

To book onto any of the Sports X-travaganza activities, email scott.beasley@peterborough.gov.uk or call 01733 863760. A minimum number of participants will be required 48 hours in advance for each session to run.
