Bourn Sports Club 2008

 

About the Club
The Club was founded in 1996 to promote sporting activities for the residents of Bourn and surrounding villages, with an emphasis on children and young people. In 1997 we won an award from Sport England for Services to Sport for young people. Since 2000 the Club has been a registered charity. Current activities are tennis for all ages, netball, and kids' football and cricket. We run an annual Sports Day in September with activities for all the family. The pavilion and sports facilities can also be hired - just £25 for half a day (£40 non-members).
