SPORTS SCENE – April 2026

Facilities for all the Chalke Valley

With the lighter nights now here, we are looking forward to a busy season of sport and activity at the Centre.

First though, an appeal. Our children’s portable football posts have broken beyond repair and we are replacing them. Costs are £300-£400 depending on whether we just replace one and which type we go for. We want to replace ASAP so they are available for children for the longer evenings. We are seeking small donations that can be made direct to the Sports Centre’s bank account:

Lloyds Bank.

Sort Code 30-97-42.

Account 01351926                                              

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Race Night. See the poster advert. Tickets are selling fast – 18 April £18 including food.

Bar and Raffle.

Donations for the Raffle also being sought. Funds will go towards the refurbishment of the showers and water services.

Multi Use Games Area: Last month we had the scheduled annual professional clean of the ‘new’ courts. This cost nearly £900 but is money we need to invest in the facility to help maintain drainage and keep the area safe to play on.

Tennis Update. The Chalke Valley Tennis Club hasentered a new coaching and tennis development programme with local business, FAR Sports and Rory Smith.

Rory and his Team have developed a varied midweek programme for both junior and adult players. See the advert elsewhere in the newsletter. The programme is set to begin after the Easter break. Email: info@farsports.co.uk

The hall is available for private hire so if you have a family celebration in the coming weeks, why not see what we can offer?

All our sports activities are promoted through the website, see below.
