About the Shift Sports Network
We know that there are a number of great sports projects and initiatives around the country that are designed to improve mental as well as physical health. The Shift Sports Network has been designed to help share knowledge, ideas and advice between people who are active in this work.
For example, you might want to get tips and advice from people in other parts of the country who are working on a similar project to you. Or you might have some great ideas and suggestions that you want to share with others. You could also use the network to arrange fixtures and competitions between people and teams in your area. How you use the network is up to you.
