Our Youth Club sessions at West Wight Sports & Community Centre offer a safe, friendly and engaging space for young people across the West Wight and wider Isle of Wight community to socialise, have fun and build confidence. Rock Solid is designed for school years 5–8, while Rock Solid 2 supports older young people in school years 8–13, providing age‑appropriate activities and a welcoming environment where everyone can feel included.

Held in our Community Centre in Freshwater, these term‑time sessions give young people the chance to enjoy a wide range of activities including pool, table tennis, crafts, air hockey, Wii, Xbox and more. With a relaxed atmosphere and supportive youth workers, the club helps young people develop friendships, learn new skills and enjoy positive experiences outside of school.

• School Years 5–8: Tuesdays, 6.30pm – 8pm

• School Years 8–13: Wednesdays, 7pm – 8.30pm
