Community Sport Hubs /
North Ayr
North Ayr Community Sport Hub brings together local sports clubs and other community partners to develop and grow the sporting offering in the community of North Ayr.
Our principles:
Growth in participation
Understanding community need
Supporting community leadership
Ensuring all the right people are working together
Offering a range of sports
We hold regular community forums to provide a platform for communication, community engagement and discussions on growth and development of sport and physical activity.
Eight sports clubs are currently involved with a total membership of over 1500 people. In the summer of 2018, we held a multisports event at Newton Park that saw more than 100 people turn up to take part in a range of different sports including handball, athletics, football, rugby, basketball and volleyball.
With so many opportunities to take part in sport within the area, we are looking to encourage as many people as possible from the area to take up a sport.

Footgolf
About:
Ayr footgolf club was set up with the aim of increasing the participation and profile of a fast growing and fun sport called footgolf – where the aim of the game is to kick a football into a larger sized hole in as little shots as possible around a golf course using your technical ability, decision making regarding the type of kick you perform, and the kick placement on the course. It’s also a chance to get outside and get some fresh air and exercise. We are looking for males and females, from any age group who would like to participate in footgolf. We would like to increase the number of males who currently play, but we are also very keen to develop the amount of females and over 45’s (male and female) who are currently playing as part of our club, so we can grow those sections and be able to organise competitions/friendly practices within those age/gender categories. We are also keen to get younger players playing at a grassroots level so we can create future players for our squad, and eventually aim to have a junior section too.Â
