This page gives information about the kinds of sports clubs and activities which are available to children who live within the New Mills area. The list is not exhaustive and has been complied through a survey of parents locally who use these clubs. We have tried to include as much information as possible but as things on the internet change quickly, we cannot guarantee that all hyper-links will work. However, the table should give you the basic information you need in order for your child to choose what kind of sport or activity they may like to do.
We hope you find the information useful. If you have suggestions for additions to the list please email Sue Fisher (PE Assistant at New Mills Primary School) sue@wayupnorth.co.uk
