What are Active Games?
Active Games are fun, social games designed to get you moving without the pressure of competitive sport or a structured workout.
Expect activities such as benchball, dodgeball and other playground favourites, with different games to try from week to week.
You don’t need to be sporty or have any previous experience. There’s no sports kit required either, just wear something comfortable that you can move around in.
Come along on your own or with friends, join in at your own pace and have some fun!
We’ll share what’s coming up each week on Instagram at @brookessportoxford

We want Student Move to be welcoming and accessible to everyone. Through Together Active, we work with students to understand and reduce barriers to getting active and help shape our activities and programmes. Our Together Active Group meets once a month, straight after the Active Games (Sports Hall) session. The first meeting is on Tuesday 6 October, 17:00 - 18:00. Find out more and see upcoming dates.
