Courtside is the outdoor sports facility located in South
Ashford and home to Ashford Netball League. It has 6 multi-use
courts, which can be used for netball, tennis, small-sided football
and basketball and a pavilion which has a meeting room, with
kitchen facilities and male and female changing rooms, with showers
and toilets.
Courtside hosts many clubs, groups and teams, who use the centre
to train and play their matches. It also holds school holiday
sports camps, where children and young people can take part in a
number of sporting activities with qualified coaches; these include
tennis, football, cricket and basketball. The facility can also be
hired by individuals or groups on a casual or contract (10 weeks or
more) basis.
The facilities can be hired on a regular basis between 5.30pm
and 10pm from Wednesday to Friday and at weekends between 9am
and 5pm (open to negotiation). Sessions must be booked and paid for
in advance. For more information on pricing and booking of the
facilities please call the team at Courtside on 01233 896511
or email Courtside.
Do you want to start playing netball?
Ever wanted to take up netball again? The
Courtside Netball, Pay, Train and Play group has been set up with
you in mind. A scheme designed to get more women aged 16
and up playing netball with relaxed and enjoyable
sessions. If you haven't played at all, or maybe not
since school then Pay, Train and Play are the sessions for
you. Since October 2007 the sessions have contributed to the
formation of 4 teams in the Ashford Netball League, 11 trainee
umpires taking their test as a result of the umpiring opportunity
the group offers. Others merely attend for the health and
social benefits that such a group can provide. If you are
wanting to come on your own or with a friend then come join us at
Courtside on a Wednesday evening (2nd and 4th of
each month) and see if you like it. There is no need to book,
but for more information please call Emma at Courtside on 01233
896511. Membership costs £2.50 (payable on
the first session), and playing costs are £2.50 per session
(payable each night).
