LOCAL sports clubs are being encouraged to get in touch with the borough council to be in the new Great Yarmouth Sport and Physical Activity Guide.

Public consultation carried out by the borough council has shown residents want to know more about how they can get active with almost 60pc admitting to not doing any exercise.

Community sport project co-ordinator Marten Payne said: “Just 11pc of people participate in games or exercise each week. The guide will provide a range of opportunities from dancing, to sport and outdoor activities. To help people get a taster there are free promotional sessions on offer.”

Yarmouth Sports Partnership has gained funding from Sport England to produce the guide which will be distributed to all homes in the borough.

Clubs or groups wanting to be included need to call Marten on 07766 205746 by Tuesday .
