Sports Development

We provide, facilitate and support a wide range of sport, health, social inclusion, community safety and physical activity opportunities within Bolsover district.

We aim to work with partners to develop and support a range of sporting and community activities and initiatives that have a positive impact on the social, economic and wellbeing of the community.

Bolsover District Sports Development Team aim to create “A district where everyone has the opportunity to participate in and benefit from physical activity, which includes sport and active recreation, whether it be for fun, for health, to learn, to enjoy the natural environment, or to excel”

To achieve this, we work closely with the community, voluntary sector sports clubs, coaches, volunteers and other strategic partners.

Our Goals:

• To increase the number of people of all ages and all abilities who are participating in regular physical activity; which includes sport and active recreation.
• To increase the number of sports performers from Bolsover district who are competing at all levels from club/community, to county, regional, national and international levels.
• To work in partnership with new and existing public, private and voluntary sector organisations in using sport and physical activity to improve quality of life.

We can provide information on local clubs, coach education and training along with advice and encouragement for local organisations to promote sport and physical activity in their communities.
