I VOLUNTEER at Holton Lee and I am organising a Disabled and Able Bodied Sports and Leisure Day for Friday, July 13, 2012.
I have already asked the Olympic Flame Committee to bring the flame to us on the day as it will be in Bournemouth on the evening of Friday, July 13, 2012.
But I am starting to look for teams, clubs, groups etc that would be interested in showing off their skills, having a stall and letting others have a go.
I am looking at any sports from wheelchair basketball to blind football, rugby to cycling and so much more.
The reason I am asking a year in advance is that the fixtures lists are starting to be compiled for next year and it would make life so much easier all round if they knew of the date now.
The day will give everyone a chance to try out new sports, to integrate sports and to have fun.
At our Summer Fair this year, which is taking place this Saturday, June 18, we are having an archery “have-a-go” area, plus the Dexter Sports Football Team will be down and you can have a go at shooting against the Speed Gun to see how fast the ball is.
If you know of a team/club that are interested please e mail me at disabilitysportspoole@ hotmail.co.uk
