Sports

Somerset is home to professional sports such as cricket, speedway, football, rugby and horseracing. It also has a thriving semi-professional and amateur scene. In addition, Weston has three golf courses which are open to visitors.

Cricket

Weston is within good striking distance of two county cricket clubs with Somerset and Bristol-based Gloucestershire both close by.

Taunton’s County Ground is home to the famous Somerset Cricket Club where world greats such as Ian Botham, Viv Richards and Joel Garner once plied their trade. The club plays in the top flight of the English league. Tickets are generally readily available for most games but Vitality Blast Twenty20 fixtures should be booked in advance as these fixtures regularly sell out. For more details see www.somersetcountycc.co.uk

Gloucestershire, who are in the second division of the Specsavers County Championship, play most of their home fixtures at their Brightside Ground in Bristol. For tickets, fixtures and more details see https://www.gloscricket.co.uk

Speedway

The Burnham-based Somerset Rebels boast World Champion Jason Doyle among their ranks and if it’s speed, thrills and excitement you want then look no further. The Rebels compete in the Premiership and fixtures run from March to September. You can usually pay on the day at their Oak Tree Arena track at Highbridge, Burnham but tickets can also be bought online. For the uninitiated, speedway is about as dramatic as it comes. The bikes have 500cc engines, no brakes and just one gear. They race on methanol fuel around an oval circuit. For more details and to view fixture dates see http://www.somersetrebels.co/homepage

Horseracing

Experience the sport of kings and enjoy a day out at Taunton Racecourse. Enjoying good views out to the Blackdown Hills, it is England’s youngest jumps racecourse and stages around 15 meetings a year. Racing involves a mixture of hurdles and steeplechases over varying distances. For race days and prices visit http://tauntonracecourse.co.uk Alternatively, you can catch some point to point racing with the Weston and Banwell Harriers in the Quantock Hills village of Cothelstone.

Football

Weston is within striking distance of three professional football teams and also has its own team Weston-super-Mare, who play in the National League South. Bristol City play in the Championship, their cross city rivals Bristol Rovers are in League One while Yeovil Town are in League Two.

Rugby

Bath Rugby are one of the traditional powerhouses of British rugby with six Premiership titles to their name as well as two European titles. Their Recreation Ground Stadium, known more popularly as The Rec is in the city centre by the River Avon. For fixtures, tickets and more details visit https://www.bathrugby.com

Bath have now been joined in the top-flight by newly-promoted Bristol who play their fixtures at the city’s Ashton Gate stadium. For fixtures, tickets and more details see https://www.bristolrugby.co.uk/

Wrestling

The all-time seaside family favourite is a regular visitor to Weston-super-Mare at various times throughout the season at venues such as the Winter Gardens Pavilion, Hutton Moor Leisure Centre and The Tavern at the Brean Leisure Park. Keep looking at the Love Weston website for upcoming bouts and events.

Golf

There are plenty of golf courses around Weston, all providing different challenges. Bleadon Hill is Somerset’s newest course and offers great value golf with nine challenging holes and breathtaking views out across the Bristol Channel, The Quantocks and the Somerset Levels. It is a pay-and-play course and also has a driving range. For details see http://www.bleadonhillgolfcourse.co.uk/pricing/

Weston-super-Mare Golf Club is situated on the coast at the South or Uphill end of town. Its rolling fairways and challenging winds offer a true test of links golf. For prices and course details visit http://www.westonsupermaregolfclub.com/

Worlebury Golf Club is a par 70 parkland course designed by six-times Open Champion Harry Vardon. It has an excellent mix of holes and its non-demanding terrain makes it a good course for all players of varying degrees of fitness. The course sits at the top of Worlebury Hill and provides some great views to the South Wales coast as well as some great golf. For prices, course details and dress code guide visit https://www.worleburygc.co.uk

Motocross

Up to 70,000 spectators are expected to descend on Weston-super-Mare from 18-20 October 2019 for the annual Weston Beach Race, which has become one of the major events in the town’s calendar. It is a must-see thrill-packed event even if you’re not a biker. The beach is transformed into a race track and motorbikes, sidecars and quad bikes thrill the huge crowds by racing over a series of man-made humps and bumps crafted out of the sand.

Stock Car and Banger Racing

The Mendips Raceway, near to Cheddar, serves up a full and exciting calendar of stock car, banger and even caravan racing. With high spectator banking, the viewing is excellent, with all parts of the track visible at all times. Race fans can enjoy a picnic on the banks, or visit the catering outlets on site.
