Junior Badminton Club

Stephen Hill Junior Badminton Club has some vacancies!

If you are between 10 and 18 years old and enjoy playing badminton, you might be interested in joining Stephen Hill’s Junior Badminton Club.

The club meets every Thursday evening from 6.30pm to 7.30pm at the Stephen Hill Methodist Church, Manchester Road, during the September to Spring Bank Holiday school term time, to play mainly doubles competently with other members on the one court available.

The club welcomes players of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced.

The fee is only £5per half term, which is very affordable.

Badminton clubs like this one are fantastic for developing not only individual skills but also a sense of team spirit. The unique environment of the club’s single court with a low ceiling can indeed promote an aggressive style of play, pushing players to refine their smashes and drops.
It’s this strategic finesse, coupled with the technical training, that prepares young players for the fast-paced challenges of badminton, all while building the camaraderie that’s essential in any team sport.

The club’s long history of 40 years (not with the same personnel) is testament to its enduring appeal. It demonstrates the commitment to encouraging a love of badminton in the community.

If you would like to have fun and improve your badminton skills, please don’t hesitate to contact Bob Townrow, Tele: 0114 2301098, E-mail: towniesrm@talktalk.net

Carers Week 2024: Putting Carers on the Map

Carers Week is a national campaign held annually to raise awareness of caring and to recognise the huge contribution carers make to millions of families and communities in the UK. It also highlights the support carers receive in their own communities and Crosspool is a wonderful example of this.

As well as special events for the NHS and employers, there’s a full week of activities for carers, starting with Songs of Praise this Sunday where you’ll hear some of our carers’ stories as they’re filmed on a regular walk at Whirlow.

You can find more information about Carers Week on the Sheffield Carers Centre website:

The June Carers café will take place earlier in the month than usual on Monday 17th at 10.30am at Stephen Hill Methodist Church when we’ll be able to catch up with each other and plan some summer meetings.

Please come and join us and if you know someone- a friend or neighbour- who is a carer or former carer, bring them too.

 For more information, contact Jan Outram at jan@sheffieldcarerscentre.org.uk tel: 0114 278 8942 or Briony Broome at briony.broome@hotmail.co.uk mobile:07801532954
