Varsity Community Open Day
Carnegie Junior Sports Academy is teaming up with Leeds Varsity to invite all families in the local area to Headingley campus for a fun day of free sports and fitness activities.
On Saturday 30 April the Carnegie Junior Sports Academy at Leeds Beckett University will welcome families and residents from the local community to be part of our Varsity Community Open Day.
Families can come along and take part in free sports, swim, and fitness sessions at the university’s Headingley Campus sports centre. Children will be able to take part in a range of free sports sessions delivered by our student coaches.
Our student coaches are fully qualified, friendly and are proud members of the university’s Leadership Academy. The Leadership Academy aims to inspire young people to become coaches and future leaders to help make a difference in their communities through the power of sport.
The students coach more than 100 children weekly as part of the university’s Carnegie Junior Sports Academy, which gives children the opportunity to have fun through physical activity in a safe and structured environment.
While the kids are enjoying the free sports sessions, adults can come and use our fitness facilities for free, including our multi-gym which has cardio equipment and weights, as well as our strength and conditioning weights suite. Adults will be able to access this through the My Zone Challenge.
Families can also take part in free swim sessions in the afternoon, to cap off a fun day to celebrate the upcoming Leeds Varsity event at the end of April.
