Liu Batchelor joined UKC Handball Club at Kent Sport on Monday 8 February to try out the game for the first time and to get some tips\u00a0as a part of her Sport Relief project – 100 Sports in 100 Days. See how she got on with Handball at the Sports Centre in her\u00a0video<\/a>.\u00a0If you’re wondering what activities you could try, take a look at the Kent Sport events calendar<\/a> and join in. If you would like to get involved with Sport Relief like Liu, you can sign up for the Sport Relief Mile<\/a> which will start at the Pavilion on the Canterbury campus on 20 March.\u00a0Read on\u00a0about Liu’s\u00a0project below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Name one sport you\u2019ve always wanted to try \u2013 but just never go round to doing? What if that one sport opened up a whole new world of excitement for sport and fitness for you?<\/p>\n

Well one lady, Liu Batchelor, is taking on 100 of those sports, and in just 100 days she hopes to inspire you to get out and find your sport that you can really enjoy!<\/p>\n

“I believe there is a perfect sport out there for everyone \u2013 it’s just a case of finding it!\u00a0<\/em>It may not be a ‘mainstream’ sport, it may even be one you’ve never heard of before, but my challenge aims to showcase just how many sports are available on our doorstep.\u00a0<\/em>You never know, you may even discover you have a natural talent for Underwater Hockey, Roller Derby, or Frisbee Golf!”<\/em><\/p>\n

Liu hopes her 100 different sports in 100 consecutive days challenge, and the video diary which accompanies it, can also help her raise \u00a310,000 for Sport Relief \u2013 which coincides with the end of her challenge on 19th<\/sup> March.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m also encouraging people to take on a challenge of their own; to complete 10 Sports in 10 Days! All those sports or activities you\u2019ve considered but never go round to trying\u2026well this is your chance! And what better excuse than for charity! <\/em><\/p>\n

You can follow and donate to Liu\u2019s challenge, check out the 60+ sports she\u2019s already completed, and get involved yourself via her social media pages below:<\/p>\n
