Barnet Borough Council – Parks, Sports and Leisure

Barnet council works extremely hard to provide its residents with a place to play sport whatever your age or level. Within the borough there are lots of green spaces for outdoor activities whether you’re after a gentle kick-a-about, game of touch rugby or Frisbee battle. There are also plenty of indoor facility alternatives that are able to host the likes of squash, gym and badminton. Barnet council runs programmes for the youth, including the SHAPE programme, London Mini Marathon and London Youth Games.
