Walking hockey project at PEAK

-

Active Stirling in partnershi­p with Stirling Wanderers Hockey Club and Scottish Hockey are bringing walking hockey to The PEAK with sessions starting on Tuesday, January 7.

Walking football and netball have already been establishe­d by Active Stirling - slower versions of the sports for people who would like to get involved in a team sport but are looking for less physically demanding ways to exercise.

Active Stirling’s Ruth Henderson, Community Activation Officer said: “The sessions not only provide that tailored level of exercise but also a fun, social activity which in turn improves physical and mental health.”

Free taster session is on Tuesday, January 7 at The PEAK then every Tuesday from 11am-noon for ages 16 and up. More informatio­n on 01786 273555.
