Sport does more than you think

Your bodyEven so, four in ten adults in Groningen don't move as much as the Dutch guidelines advise.¹

TogetherOne in ten people in the Netherlands feels very lonely, most often people aged 35 to 55.³ Sport in a group scores highest for enjoyment.²

Why starting is hard

Which sport suits me? Is there something nearby, on an evening I'm free? Are beginners welcome, can I try first, and do I have to go on my own? The answers exist, but spread over hundreds of club websites, PDFs and timetables, mostly in Dutch. Of the more than 300 clubs and providers in the municipality, we found a timetable you can read online for about a third.

Sportspots puts it in one place, in English where we can: search by sport, area, day and age, find clubs where internationals are welcome, and go together instead of alone.
