In simple terms, we want to promote sport in the following areas – Haslemere, Hindhead, Grayshott, Headley, Churt, Wormley, Chiddingfold, Fernhurst, Liphook and surrounding villages. We want more people to be active and to enjoy a rich variety of sport and activities to include : yoga; martial arts; golf; badminton; tennis; equestrian; archery; trampolining; fencing; table tennis plus the mainstream team sports.

For clubs and schools the cost of membership is just £20 per year, running from July to June. Please join us and we will help you to improve your facilities, improve your presence and increase your membership numbers – plus of course getting more people involved in sport in this local community.
Clubs and schools will need to be a member of Sport Haslemere to make announcements and seek grant money.
APPLY FOR A GRANT
Perhaps the most important role for Sport Haslemere is to help a club find money to buy new facilities. Perhaps a new cricket net or a new roller for a bowls club. We won’t fill in the forms for you, but we will point you in the right direction with up to date contact details.
OUR SPONSORS
If like us, you have an interest in sport, then why not sponsor Sport Haslemere? We can offer a company or school great visibility on this website and put announcements in our News and Events section. e.g. an estate agent may have an open day, or a car garage may have a free test day or a shop may have a special offer. You would have a link direct from your logo to your website.
Sponsors will also have their name advertised at our next prestigious Awards evening at the Haslemere Hall. Your company could be the sponsor for one of the 12 awards. This year the main sponsor for the Awards evening is St Edmunds School
