Looking for a fun, active and welcoming way to stay fit while meeting other sisters in the community? Banbury Madni Masjid invites ladies aged 14 years and above to join our Sisters Active Sessions – Rounders, held every Thursday during term time.
These weekly sessions combine exercise, teamwork and friendship in a safe and encouraging environment where sisters can improve their physical wellbeing, develop new skills and enjoy spending time together.
Whether you have played rounders before or are completely new to the game, everyone is welcome. The sessions focus on participation, confidence building and having fun rather than competition, making them suitable for ladies of all abilities. The programme continues to support healthier lifestyles while strengthening friendships across the Banbury community.
Regular physical activity plays an important role in maintaining both physical and mental wellbeing. The Sisters Active Sessions provide an enjoyable opportunity to exercise outdoors while taking part in one of the UK's most popular team sports.
Rounders is an easy-to-learn game that encourages movement, coordination and teamwork. It helps improve fitness while creating a relaxed social environment where everyone feels included, regardless of previous sporting experience.
By attending regularly, participants can enjoy:
The sessions have been designed specifically for women, providing a comfortable space where sisters can enjoy sport together.
Our aim is to encourage healthy lifestyles while strengthening community relationships. Many participants attend not only for the physical activity but also for the opportunity to socialise, support one another and build lasting friendships.
Whether you are a student, professional, mother or simply looking to become more active, these weekly sessions provide a welcoming place to participate at your own pace.
No previous experience is required. Simply wear comfortable sports clothing, suitable footwear and bring a water bottle.
The Sisters Active Sessions form part of Banbury Madni Masjid's wider commitment to promoting healthier lifestyles and stronger communities.
Alongside weekly Islamic education and community programmes, these sporting activities help improve physical health, mental wellbeing and social connection.
