Manchester Alternative Sports Day - 4th October 2008
Manchester Alternative Sports Day - 4th October 2008 - Platt Fields Park, Fallowfield
A FREE introduction to 3 exciting new sports being played in the Manchester area!
What is it?
Fancy trying something different? Want to play a team sport other than football, netball or rugby? Come down to Manchester Alternative Sports Day on Saturday 4th October at Platt Fields Park!
We are holding a sports day - but with a twist! FREE to participate, Alternative Sports Day is an opportunity for you to try out three cool sports: Korfball, Ultimate Frisbee and Softball! 3 different sports but with lots in common: they are three of the very few team sports that men and women play together on equal terms; they are field sports that can also be played indoors and they are a lot of fun!
Why?
The idea is to introduce people to new and interesting sports, as well as to raise the profile of lesser known sports that are well established in Manchester.
