The initiative is an excellent opportunity for those looking to kick off 2022 with a healthy mindset by getting active after the festive season. The sessions are ideal for couples, friends and families seeking fun activities to enjoy together once the festive buzz has died down.
The UK’s leading fresh potato brand is serving up an array of sports to punters across the UK. Some of the more alternative classes on offer are shinty, trampolining, climbing, martial arts, fencing kickboxing and various water sports. Albert Bartlett has partnered with 115 venues across Scotland to offer free sports sessions – and all you have to do to sign up is buy a promotional pack of Albert Bartlett Rooster potatoes.
The on-pack promotion is running for two months only in January and February and is not to be missed. It’s also ideal for those looking to tackle a brand new sport and challenge themselves in the new year. Not only that, the Rooster potatoes are an excellent source of carbohydrates to fuel any workout and can be enjoyed pre or post workout session.
Michael Jarvis, Head of Marketing at Albert Bartlett, added: “With many people entering the new year with a healthy mindset, the sports sessions are an excellent way to get fit and active in a fun and exciting way. We’ve tried to offer as wide a variety as possible so people can choose something totally up their street, whether that’s a sport they already enjoy or something completely different that they fancy taking up.
“The activities are suitable for families too and make for a great day out, particularly in January which can be tedious at the best of times. To take part, just pick up a promotional pack of Albert Bartlett Rooster potatoes to claim your free session. And why not finish off your day with a healthy potato dish, the best carbohydrate to fuel your workouts. It’s a win win!”
Some of the sports on offer in Scotland are athletics, football, gymnastics, martial arts, shinty, tennis and yoga. To check out what’s available visit www.poweredbypotatoes.co.uk
