Courses are held all year round at the North Manchester Community Sports Centre, which is part of North Manchester Boys High School site on Charlestown Road.

They are designed to help people develop sports leadership skills and provide a stepping stone to employment or career development for anyone aged 16 and over.

Forthcoming courses include classes for weight training leaders, first aid and football junior team managers.

Regular Saturday activities at the centre include minigames for five to eight year olds and stretch and tone for adults. There are also yoga classes at Lightbowne Learning Centre on Lightbowne Road on Wednesday afternoons.
