Tamworth Fitness Festival

This Community Games event took place on the 4th June 2011 in Tamworth Castle Grounds, we used the mantra live local: play local: support local to gather momentum for the day. It was a resounding success, with as one group quoted 'peals of laughter sounding all day' with activities for young and old, for all levels of fitness.

Local groups enjoyed a surge in interest with one group signing 60 new members on the day (BMX Crusaders). The day engendered a real sense of sporting community and we plan to do it all again, such was the positive feedback. It will be even bigger and better next year and would not hesitate in recommending each and every town to host their own Community Games. A fun packed day for all.

By holding their own Community Games, the inspiration of London 2012 came to Tamworth!
