Activities Group

Co-ordinator:  Michael O'Donoghue - activities@ashbyu3a.co.uk -

The Activities Group meets twice a month at Ashby Leisure Centre to take part in various sports and activities, namely Badminton, Boccia, Pickleball, Table Tennis and Walking Football. Whilst some of these activities may be new to you we will have someone there to show you the basics.

As we progress we hope to have someone to look after each activity and the group overall. In the mean time our Group Co-ordinator, Michael O'Donoghue, is getting the group started

We will meet on the 1st Wednesday and 3rd Friday of the month in the afternoon. Note the times are slightly different for the two days.

If you want to join us please contact Michael at activities@ashbyu3a.co.uk for details.

To cover the cost of the facilities and equipment, we are asking each member who attends, to pay a subscription of £3.00 per session, payable at time of registration on entry to the Ashby Leisure Centre.

To offset this cost, you can avail of free car parking at the Leisure Centre, provided you register your car at the reception. We would also request that you arrive about ten to fifteen minutes before the scheduled start time so we can get everyone registered and ready to have some fun.
