Have a Go sports event returns

Following the success of The Great Turn On, the Warkworth Showgrounds will host a family sports ‘Have a go Day’ on April 6 from 3.30pm to 7pm.

Event coordinator Nicola Jones says the format will be similar to last year without the light display.

“Because there are so many new people coming to the area every year, we decided to make the sports day an annual event,” Nicola says. “It’s an opportunity for children to get a taste of many different sports so they can decide what they want to play.”

Over 10 clubs will be present, hosting activities that include netball, scouts, athletics, equestrian and dog agility.

Children will receive a stamp card that entitles them to a free item of food once they have participated in every activity.

Entry is by gold coin donation and food will be available on site. To volunteer as a helper for the event contact mahusport@gmail.com.
