Badminton or Tennis Players Wanted (Beginners Welcome)
A small group of locals have now started playing badminton and tennis on weekday evening(s) after work - mixed doubles or singles matches of a beginner / intermediate standard. Venues will normally be Harvey Hadden Leisure Centre for badminton and the Nottingham Tennis Centre on University Boulevard (cost per player about 1 or 2 pounds per hour). Basic equipment can be provided, and as all players are fairly new to the game of tennis or badminton a lack of ability is not necessarily a problem!
If you are interested please see - badminton club in South Nottingham area - page, or have a look at the - tennis club in Nottingham - page, or contact one of the following email addresses as soon as possible to get your name down for the next session:
Football Team Created By This Website
This website is responsible for the creation of a football team, starting out as a five-a-side team then progressing to 11-a-side Sunday League Football in 2008. This is one of Nottingham's best football teams to join if you are an amateur, because we have regular social events and train once or twice per week, with weekend matches throughout the year.
Please see details and latest news on the - Beeston.biz FC - pages.

Readers of this page meet regularly [at least once per week] throughout the year to play golf. We're not very good at playing golf but we have a great laugh and enjoy a good walk and some fresh air! Sometimes we play nine holes on a course suitable for beginners, sometimes we go somewhere a little more challenging but we've helped complete novices around those golf courses too! Please see - Local Golf Courses - page.
Next Golf: This Weekend!
A number of players [mostly beginners but some of intermediate / club standard] regularly meet at Cotgrave Golf Club, Chilwell Manor Golf Course, Bramcote Hills Golf Course, the Rutland Sports Centre in Chilwell [Pewit Golf Course - 9 Holes No Dress Code], or at Trent Lock Golf Course in Sawley / Long Eaton [the 9 hole course there has no dress code and is a very friendly place to enjoy a couple of hours playing golf]. This weekend will be no different, and if you are able to take a couple of hours off work in the afternoon we'll be playing on weekdays throughout the year (even in winter) too.
