Training in Barwick in Elmet

Club sport in a maypole village.

There's no gym on Barwick in Elmet's list. The parish plays club sport instead: Barwick-in-Elmet Cricket Club and Scholes Cricket Club, a village tennis club, and Garforth Golf Range for practice swings. For weights or a pool, Active Leeds runs a leisure centre in Garforth, the next town south.

The 86 ft maypole stands where Main Street meets the Cross, and the village holds a maypole festival every three years on the Spring Bank Holiday. A regular doubles partner is the easiest habit to build here, and summer cricket nets are better with company.
