Wed 10 Aug 2016

Don your team colours and get into the Olympics spirit at our many events taking place at Derby Arena. Following on from the opening ceremony on Friday, we are excited to bring a variety of exciting sports to our infield for Olympic special events.

Kicking off with a Table Tennis Olympic Special on Wed 10 and 17 Aug. From 7.30pm on these dates, you can play for two hours for the price of one! Grab your bat and balls and show off those quick reflexes and your super fast footwork on our infield.

The Futsal Olympic Special will take place on Wed 10 and Fri 19 Aug, from 10am - 2pm. Futsal is an extremely fast paced version of football, with only five players per side, you are sure to get those lungs working. Come and give this exciting game a go.

You don't want to miss out on the fastest sport in the Olympics. It is, of course, the Badminton Olympic Special, taking place on Thu 11 and Sat 20 Aug. You can get two hours court time for the price of one! Not only can you come and show off your super smash, colossal clear or death defying defence, the first 12 people to book and play will receive a free junior badminton set which includes 2 rackets and shuttlecocks, along with a voucher for a half price badminton court at weekends!

The volleyball Olympic Special will take place on Sun 14 Aug, allowing that electric team atmosphere to blow the roof off any venue. Come and dig your way into some long and gruelling rallies and be prepared to jump, dive and of course, high-five your excitable team. Just turn up and pay £3.75 for hours of Volleyball fun.
