Sports clubs & groups

Joining a club is a great way to be active, as well as a way to meet new people with similar interests. No matter what your fitness level, there is a sport or activity out there for you, catering for all levels and abilities.

You might like to join with a friend, so you can support and motivate each other to keep going - often people find that they make new friends through joining a sports club or group too.


How to find a sports club

It can be difficult to know where to start. If you know what sport you'd like to give a try, have a look at the websites in our directory below to help you find your local club.

A Archery , Athletics

B Basketball , Bowls , Boxing

C Canoeing , Cricket , Cycling

E Equestrian

F Football

G Golf , Gymnastics

H Hockey

N Netball

R Rugby League , Rugby Union , Running

S Squash , Swimming

T Taekwondo , Tennis

You might also like to try these activity finders:

  • Yorkshire Sport Foundation Activity Finder
  • This Girl Can Activity Finder

Most clubs charge a fee to join, and there may be additional costs for equipment, but may places offer free taster sessions so often you can have a go before you make a commitment.


Community groups

Doncaster is home to many different community groups which offer a whole range of services and activities, from knit and natter, sewing bees, craft groups, singing, dancing, history and local heritage groups. Visit Your Life Doncaster to browse the community groups within your area. You could also contact your local Well Doncaster Officer for more information.

"This (running) group has brought me back to life and I owe a huge thank you to the whole group. Without the support of the group I would have most definitely given up. I have realised that everyone gets out of breath whilst running, it's okay!"

Angela (Member of the couch to 5k running group in Conisbrough and Denaby)
