It will be a taste of Richmond, sports style, on Sunday at Minoru Park.
The Richmond Sports Council is hosting the inaugural Discover Your Sports Day, an event that will feature over 50 of the city's sports organizations offering a chance to try their activity.
"Families are invited to try different sports and discover new interests, and there will be Sport Passports for kids to keep a record of the sports they try," explained Peter Mitchell, secretary of the Richmond Sports Council. "The day is all about having fun and learning a bit about new sports because kids who have fun being active are more likely to stay active for life."
Sports that will be featured include: baseball, cricket, football, gymnastics, karate, lawn bowling and softball.
The event runs from noon to 4 p.m. The Richmond Sports Council is a non-profit community based organization of sports groups which facilitates effective communication and problem solving between sports groups, other community user groups and city council. It was founded in 1984.
