Activist Sports Club

Mr Motivator | 12.01.2011 23:22

Every Sunday (unless it's raining) we will be getting together at Riverside Park (Along side M32, Between Staples and St Pauls Underpass) to play sports, do circuit training and have fun, and you are invited!

We have had a lot of interest from students and seasoned activists alike, so it really is worth coming along.
After all this running about in Bristol and London for the student demos, we noticed we are pretty unfit. So last Saturday some members of Bristol Anarchist Federation got together to play football. Even tough we all suck at football and it was cold and muddy we had a great time. So we thought we would create an opportunity for students and activists to get fit and meet new people by doing it every week.

The Programme:
WARM UP - Stretches and circuit training to loosen muscles.
PART ONE - Team sports such as Football, touch rugby, cricket etc (depends on what equipment people bring)
PART TWO - Demo training games. Games and Excersises to help improve agility, fitness, co-ordination and communication such as Self Defence, British Bulldogs, Breaking Police lines, dodgeball, tactics, role play etc anything that is fun and improves our chances of staying safe and free on the streets!
COOL DOWN
SOCIAL - Pint and a game of Skittles at the Duke of York.

This is a great way to meet people without the boredom of a meeting or the stress of a protest. We want to see students, unionist, socialists and anarchists all there having fun and sweating loads!

This is DIY so we are up for any ideas, skills, knowledge or equipment people can provide.
