Where Sport & Community Meet
Founded in 1946.Overstrand Sports Club was formed in 1946 and the field is open to the public for sporting and recreational activities.
Overstrand Sports Club is situated in the centre of the village on the High Street. It is a registered charity and home to a thriving Cricket and Bowls club. The grounds are open to all, 7 days a week. The grounds are host to the renowned Rockstock music festival held in July each year and a showcase for local bands. The grounds also hold regular open mic nights and an annual beer festival plus host village events such as the village fair and other fundraising events. Over the last 80 years Overstrand Sports Club has become a community hub for social events and sports for the residents of Overstrand, holiday visitors and the inhabitants of neighbouring towns and villages.

Overstrand Community Gym - Fun Fitness Happens Here!
🌟 Help Overstrand Get Moving with a Community Gym! 🌟
The Overstrand Mermates sea swimming group (in collaboration with Overstrand Sports Club) are fundraising to create a fantastic outdoor community gym on the Sports Club field where everyone can get active, whatever their age* or ability.
From fitness equipment to table tennis and basketball, we are creating a free, inclusive space sited on the Sports Club field, where villagers can improve their health, boost their mental wellbeing, make friends and have fun.
More than just a gym, it’s a place to bring generations together, tackle loneliness and build a stronger, happier community.
Thanks to a generous donation of £6,400 from Overstrand Together village group, we only need to raise an additional £2000 to get the Gym up and running.
Every donation, big or small, brings us one step closer to making it happen. Help us make Overstrand stronger, healthier and more connected — together, we can make a real difference! 🏋️♀️
*Table Tennis table and basketball hoop for use by all ages. Outdoor gym stations for 16+ years.
