Congratulations !  Making the choice to play sport is great for you in lots of ways.  Otago has a wide range of sporting options for you.  From athletics to yachting, there will be a choice that suits your interests, level of fitness and location.

If you know the sport you want to play and just need to find out how to contact a local club, click here.  If you can't find the sport you're looking for contact us on 03 474 6350 (0800 776 786 from outside Dunedin) and we will find that information for you.

If you'd like to talk to someone about finding a sport to suit you, please contact us and we'd be happy to have a chat with you about options.  Have a think about  things like, which sports interest you, what your current level of fitness is, how much time you have available, when you are free to play sport and how much money you can afford to spend.  Then give us a call and we will put you in contact with some clubs so you can try some options out.

If you want to get involved in a sport but feel you need to improve your fitness first, you might want to consider a Green Prescription as a first step. Click here for more details about a Green Prescription and how you can get one.

Don't forget there are many sports clubs that have events at different degrees of challenge that could suit a new participant.  Athletics clubs often have walking and jogging groups, mountain biking clubs have easy rides, orienteering have basic courses for new people and you can begin yachting by crewing on a boat, just to name a few.  If you have the drive to get involved there is a sports club out there waiting to hear from you !
