Weymouth Town Council's Annual Beach Sports & Community Festival Offering Grants

This year marks 10 years since Weymouth & Portland hosted the Olympic and Paralympic sailing events as part of London 2012 Olympics.

To celebrate, Weymouth Town Council is working with local sports clubs to run a multi-sport event on Sunday 24th July. The annual event, Weymouth's Beach Sports & Community Festival runs this year from the 12th-24th July 2022 on Weymouth beach.

To support young budding sports stars of the future, each club delivering an activity as part of the Sunday event will have the opportunity to apply for a sports grant of up to £250 to be specifically targeted at the club's youth and diversity activities.

The event highlights the success of Team GN and Paralympic GB in London 2012, and the national campaign #PassTheBaton campaign.

If your club is interested in taking part in out multi-sports event, or in running sessions at any point during the beach event, please email: events@weymouthtowncouncil.go.uk before the 31st March 2022.
