Thornton YMCA and Fleetwood YMCA have launched Sportivate 2012 to encourage young adults to try new sports and new ways to be active.

Sportivate, which is funded through Lancashire Sport and Sport England, gives the centres the opportunity to offer planned sessions for young people and young adults aged 14 – 25 and at just £2 each.

Sportivators can try Swimfit or spinning at Fleetwood YMCA where there is also a daytime crèche available during the sessions or try basketball, Zumba and dance fitness at Thornton YMCA in the evenings.

Dave Carter, Manager at Thornton YMCA said: “The Sportivate programme gives us a great opportunity to showcase the sports and activities available at the centres and thanks to the Sportivate funding we can offer them at just £2 per session.”

He added: “This is definitely the year to try something new and learn new sporting skills and ways to be active – we could even find a future Olympian!”
