Active recreation is physical activity for fun and wellbeing. It's not about competition – it’s about choosing what’s right for you. Whether you're working out, dancing, tramping, shooting hoops or taking part in kapa haka, you decide what you do, when, where and how. You can be active on your own, with friends or through a group or organisation.
At Sport NZ, we believe active recreation plays a vital role in supporting the wellbeing and development of rangatahi across Aotearoa. That’s why we focus on providing resources and funding to help create quality and accessible opportunities that reflect the diverse needs and aspirations of rangatahi.
We work with national and regional partners to support a wide range of active recreation opportunities. Key funds include Tū Manawa, Active As, He Oranga Poutama and Disability investment.
The latest news, stories and insights on active recreation for rangatahi across Aotearoa. Sent quarterly, this newsletter also features updates and profiles on providers and our partners.
If you require an accessible version of any content on the site please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
