Aberdeenshire Council are offering a new fun activity for the “summer” holidays!

Body Zorbing lets you bounce around, crash into your friends and even land on your head, all while safely cocooned in a giant, transparent inflatable ball.

The sessions, which cost £4, will take place at venues across Aberdeenshire from July 16 to August 19. There is no need to book, just turn up and have a go.

The activity is suitable for children aged 3 to 16, and adults, subject to sizing restrictions. Council staff will supervise the sessions, but children need to be supervised by a parent or guardian.

Body Zorbing is being offered as part of the Active Aberdeenshire campaign, aimed at encouraging people to take part in and enjoy regular sport and exercise.

The Body Zorbing balls are also available to hire for a party, group or event. Contact sports.events@aberdeenshire.gov.uk or phone 01467 625088 to book.

Body Zorbing comes to Westhill on Tuesday 16th July 2012 at Westhill Primary School from 10.30-12.30.

I want to have a go; pity I have to go to work – it looks like great fun!
