Return to Netball Ladies 16+ - Evreham Sports Centre
Thinking of returning to Netball or want to try it for the first time?
Better is working in partnership with England Netball to provide new Return to Netball sessions for the residents. Whether you enjoyed playing netball at school or stopped playing more recently or would love to play for the first time, then this is perfect for you. Return to Netball is a great way of meeting new people and trying a new sport in a really fun way.
Return to Netball is a great gentle introduction to the sport for female players aged sixteen and over. All sessions are led by fully a qualified coach and will cover basic skills, development and court play. The emphasis of each session is on learning new skills and having fun playing with netball friends.
These sessions are aimed at all abilities and focus on helping you to discover a sport you had forgotten or simply to get active again in a fun way.
Return to Netball only costs £3 for Better members and £3.50 for non members, per session.
The sessions run every Monday, 7.00pm-8.00pm. Due to the popularity of the sessions there will be an extra session starting on Saturday 27th April 12.00pm-1.00pm
If you would like more information on sessions or on Better membership please contact the Evreham Sports Centre, Swallow Street, Iver, Bucks, SL0 0HS on 01753 672 610.
Better is working together with Badminton England in continuing to offer adults an opportunity to receive quality coaching in a fun and friendly environment.
The idea behind these sessions is to provide individuals with the opportunity to build confidence in a sport that they may have not played for several years.
This a fun and cheap way to keep fit and make new friends and a good start to progress to our popular No Strings Badminton sessions where you can play against new people of all abilities.
Sessions take place on a Tuesday 4.00pm-5.00pm and are £3.50 per session or £18 for six weeks, at Evreham Sports Centre.
If you would like more information please contact the Evreham Sports Centre, Swallow Street, Iver, Bucks, SL0 0HS on 01753 672 610.
Better is launching exciting ten week courses and taster sessions in Nordic Walking which is one of the fastest growing fitness activities in the world.
Nordic walking is essentially a technique of walking with ski poles and is unique in that it provides benefits for everybody from those with medical problems to the super fit.
There are two major benefits, one being the poles help propel the walker along, meaning you will work harder but the support makes it feel easier, secondly, the upper body muscles are used as well as the legs.
The activity burns up to 46% more calories than walking because of the additional upper body muscle usage. It can also help to relieve and improve neck, back and joint pain by improving posture and reducing pressure on joints.
The first taster session will be on Tuesday 9th April 6.00pm-7.00pm, 10 week course starts on Tuesday 16th April 6.00pm-7.00pm. (Evreham Sports Centre)
The second taster session will be on Thursday 11th April 10.00am-11.00am, 10 week course starts on Thursday 18th April 10.00am-11.00am. (Evreham Sports Centre)
Another taster session will take place on Monday 15th April, 10.00am-11.00am at the Beacon Sports Centre. 10 week course starts on Monday 22nd April 10.00am-11.00am. (Beacon Sports Centre)
There is no need to book just turn up and have fun - poles will be provided. The course will be led by a friendly and fully qualified Nordic Walking UK instructor. You do not need any previous Nordic Walking experience; the course is designed for all levels of fitness from the non sporty upwards.
If you would like more information please contact the Evreham Sports Centre, Swallow Street, Iver, Bucks, SL0 0HS on 01753 672 610 or The Beacon Sports Centre and Theatre, Holtspur Way, Holtspur, Beaconsfield, Bucks, HP9 1RJ on 01494 677 764.
