About Surrey Goalball Club
Surrey Goalball Club was established in 2025 to help promote the fast-paced Paralympic sport of goalball in the county. We aim to provide regular training sessions and competitive opportunities for athletes of all abilities from our venue at Woking High School. Our sessions are monthly on Saturdays, from 12pm-1pm, although we are looking to increase the frequency and duration as the club grows. We want to foster an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone can develop their skills, challenge themselves, and enjoy the sport. Sessions are carefully designed to develop players' skills in defence, attack, orientation, communication, and teamwork.
Membership is completely free. Session's cost £5, but Your first session is free, and your second is half price (£2.50). We are open to players of all ages, though we highly recommend a minimum age of 8 years old. There is no upper age limit, but you'll need to be able to get up and down and move about reasonably easily. Our sessions are completely unisex and open to all abilities and experience levels.
