Play Rounders is coming to Shobnall Road, Burton-on-Trent, with weekly games taking place from Thursday 9th April, 6.30pm
Rounders England has announced the arrival of the community-based sports programme, Play Rounders, to Burton-on-Trent, inviting locals of all ages to take part in the fun game of rounders, while enjoying some healthy competition and friendship building on the field.
The aim is to reignite the passion for play, allow reconnection with physical activity, unite communities through the fun of sport, allow a mental escape from the stresses of the day, and create a sense of teamship. The first session is free, and then the fee is £5 per session, which goes towards Activators’ development and venue hire.
Play Rounders Manager, Nick Jackson said: “Play Rounders provides a great opportunity for community organisations, Active Partnerships, and other sporting networks to come together and offer a very accessible sport to their audience. The format of Play Rounders is designed to give every player the best opportunity to play to their abilities and get that sought after physical and mental release.”
Development Director at Rounders England, Karen Harvey said: “Play Rounders is targeted at anyone who loves sport or has thought about engaging in some form of physical activity. The inclusive nature of Rounders means anyone is welcome.”
Let’s hit the target of 1 million players across the country by 2032! To connect with your local Play Rounders network, please visit this link. For more information, contact Nick Jackson via nick.jackson@roundersengland.co.uk or 07506296463.
