For sports clubs and associations
Tampere has an extensive network of sports clubs and communities. The clubs offer a wide range of activities for different age groups in several different sports. If you are looking for a more goal-oriented sporting activity, there are also several clubs in Tampere that are committed to top-level sports. Check out the wide range on our website and contact the club directly.
Cooperation with clubs
We develop cooperation between clubs and city experts by organising joint events every year. Our aim is to create a basis for joint discussion, to listen to the wishes of clubs in terms of sporting activities and to pass on information on the development of sporting conditions and other current sporting issues.
Club newsletter
We publish a newsletter for clubs, which you can subscribe to from the link below from the beginning of May. The newsletter provides information on topical sports issues that are of particular interest to clubs in our city.
