This is a 12-week long men's weight management programme of weekly one and a half hour–long sessions on an evening at Castleford RUFC rugby club. There will be a classroom session of 30 minutes on health promotion and healthy eating with appropriate resources. Then we’ll move out on to the field to do an exercise routine and then divide into teams to play touch rugby (at a gentle pace).

We want to provide opportunities for men to be active in a supportive social setting rather than individually at a gym as we know that camaraderie and mutual support will keep men engaged and motivated to make positive changes for themselves.
