Outside of the Parish Centre based general social activities (see separate pages) this page gives you a taste of some of the other sports related social activities going on. Running/Jogging/Walking Are you keen to to Run,Jog or Walk? If you are then come and join the Running/Walking/Jogging Club which meets on Thursday evenings. We meet in the Timothy room inside the Parish Centre at 7:00pm. Our aim is predominantly to have some fun, fellowship, and exercise whilst offering varying levels of activity to suit all. If you would like more Information please contact the Parish Office. Friday Football There is a group within St Peter's who are keen to play football on Friday evenings. This is non competitve indoor football played at Sports halls around the Farnborough area. While the teams always enjoy winning, our aim is mainly
to have some fun, fellowship, and exercise to finish the working
week off well. Cricket Team The St. Peter's cricket team plays matches against other local churches, the local pub team, and local businesses during the summer. Most of our games are 20 overs per side, and take place on weekday (usually Thursday) evenings between mid-May and late-July. This season, we will also play a couple of longer games on Saturday afternoons. While we always enjoy winning, our aim is mainly to have some fun, fellowship, and exercise on a pleasant summer's evening. This is an all-ability team: all kit (including helmets for the under 18s and cautious adults) is provided, and all are welcome to come along to nets and try their hand. We would suggest early teens as the minimum sensible age for youngsters to play in our games. If you haven't played for a long time, the best time to try it again would be at the indoor nets, which are scheduled for the Thursday evenings 23 and 30 April, and 7 May, at the Sixth Form College sports hall from 7 to 8pm. For more details, contact Les Bolton on 01252 674790 or via E-mail to st.peters.cricket@ntlworld.com Rambling Club The Rambling club organises events ranging from 4 mile afternoon rambles to enjoyable all day walks. Walks take place throughout the year. The ramblers normally hold a weekend away in late spring/early summer.
