The Return to Sport scheme is a project developed to encourage more adults to regularly participate in sport and physical activity. Courses are aimed at encouraging adults back into sport they have played before or sports that they have never played before.

The Sports Development Unit co-ordinates a number of courses per year, sports that include Badminton, Tennis, Rowing, Squash, Bowls, Cricket, Table Tennis, Yoga, Athletics, Netball & Golf. A number of voluntary sports clubs help facilitate these activities.

The Isle of Wight Council manages a number of leisure facilities across the island, with activities from swimming to the Tone Zone fitness gym, badminton and squash to aerobics classes. The service aims to promote health, fitness and wellbeing and encourage increased levels of access and participation.
