I would encourage all young people to take part in the programme and enjoy the many benefits associated with getting active.”
Sports Development Manager (Central), Stephen McCartney added: “I’m really excited about the scale and variety of courses and schemes on offer this year. Council's Sports Development Team is committed to offering quality activities which are reflective of the specific needs within our communities. This year’s programme demonstrates an innovative approach to sport and activity delivery.
