Wangaratta Sports and Aquatic Centre (WSAC) is proud to introduce a new initiative designed to make sport more accessible and enjoyable for everyone in our community.

Every Wednesday evening from 6.00 - 7.30 pm WSAC offers low-cost, low-commitment sporting sessions aimed at encouraging participation from those not currently engaged in regular sport.

Supported by VicHealth during its launch phase, the program provides a welcoming environment where participants can learn new sports skills and enjoy non-competitive social games.

Each session is just $10, with free entry to the first session. No bookings are required and there is no financial commitment – attendees can pay as they go.

Sessions will begin with WSAC staff coaching basic skill development, followed by a friendly, non-competitive game. Badminton will be played first with other sports rotating every 4–6 weeks and include pickleball, volleyball, squash/racquetball, and indoor soccer.

“This program is about creating a space where people can try something new, have fun, and feel part of a community—without the pressure of competition,” said a Leon Newton, Manager Sport, Aquatic & Events
