Sportivate is a national funding programme directly managed by Sport Hampshire & IOW on behalf of Sport England. It is designed to capture the excitement of the London 2012 Games to get teenagers and young adults (between 14-25 years) more active; offering them the chance to find a sport they enjoy and one that they can continue to take part in locally on a regular basis.
