Give Goalball a Go at Our First Taster Session – Saturday 7th of February 2026
Are you in Surrey (or the surrounding area) and looking for a new hobby? Perhaps goalball is for you!
Surrey Goalball Club (SGC) is happy to announce we will be holding our first Taster Session on Saturday 7th of February 2026. This session, where you’ll get to try out this great sport, will be perfect for anyone looking to get into playing at SGC.
Any experience level is welcome, so it doesn’t matter whether you’re a pro or just starting out. Anyone is welcome!
The session will consist of various activities to get you used to throwing and defending, followed by some games to put it into practice and get the full feel of it. We’ll share more details about this closer to the time. You can read about how goalball works on our What Is Goalball page.
