A summer event for all the family will offer visitors of any age or ability the chance to try more than 30 different sports in one day.

Each sport, from archery to rollersports, judo to orienteering, athletics to scuba diving, will have a dedicated purpose-built area where adults and children can have a go in a safe and professional environment.

For those feeling confident there will also be the opportunity to enter organised tournaments and competitions.

The benefits of regular participation in a sport include improved fitness, health and wellbeing, increased confidence and self-esteem but above all enjoyment.
