Sports & Social Club

Sports & Social Club

BCPD Trust is currently working with the community and young youths in Luton and established a sports, social and skills training club to work with youngsters. The focus of the club is to use sports and social activities such as Badminton, Golf, Archery and other outdoor activities to engage with youths to improve their confidence, community participation, wellbeing, education and employment opportunities.

Membership of the Sports & Social Club is FREE and in most cases sports participation, training, transport and equipment costs are also FREE. However as we are a not for profit trust dependent on charitable donations then students who can contribute can do so to help the sports club continue to support other youngsters.

Target age group is 11 – 19 year olds though other people outside this age group can also take part if they live in Luton or Bedfordshire and interested in supporting BCPD Trust activities.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the BCPD Trust sports & social club then complete Application Form with your name and contact details.
Badminton

Badminton

The Trust offers young people from Luton and surrounding areas the opportunity to train and learn how to play badminton. You do not require any previous skills or experience but are willing to learn and have fun. The club encourages participation in competitions and will organise teams to enter local, county or national tournaments.

Badminton training and practice sessions are held most weeks and details of venue in Luton and time table will be provided in advance of each event.

If you want to learn how to play golf or want to try it out then why not join the golfing group which meet’s monthly and uses local golf clubs in Luton to practice and improve their skills. There will be FREE transport and golfing equipment provided to any youngster wanting to practice on the golf range or putting green.

The sports club will encourage regular golf games either at the smaller 9-hole practice range at Tea Green or the full 18-hole course at Stockwood Park Golf Centre.

Where students want to take professional lessons then we can introduce you to a local PGA qualified professional golf trainer.

Archery has been used for centuries in competition, so why not try your skill and judgement against your friends and club members. All bows used are approximately 20 pounds recurve, which are suitable for children and adults.
