The event was funded by Get Berkshire Active as part of Sportivate, a project key to the creation of a legacy from the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Sportivate is the £56 million National Lottery-funded legacy initiative that gives people aged 11-25 free coaching in a new sport.

The coaching lasts between six to eight weeks, and helps young people find low costs ways to continue to play.

Keable has long been one of England’s top netball stars and has represented her country at numerous major competitions around the world.

She said: “Sportivate is a fantastic way of getting young people into sport and that’s something I’m really passionate about.

“I believe that, as a Sport England Sporting Champion, I can inspire people to raise their own aspirations of what they can achieve.

“I also believe I can motivate them to be the very best versions of themselves that they can be.”

Jayne Molyneux is the strategic lead for youth at Sport England. She said: “It’s great to see Lindsay help inspire young people.

“Thanks to Sportivate, she has helped people carry on participating in a sport that they may never had tried before.

“Our Sportivate programme is all about listening to young people and putting on taster sessions in a sport of their choice.

“This helps them to make the step into community sport and set them on their path to creating a sporting habit for life.”

Get Berkshire Active still has funding for Sportivate projects. Clubs can apply up until September 10th and more information can be found at www.getberkshireactive.org.
