2023 Sporting Calendar for Wales

The Welsh Sports Association (WSA) is committed to supporting its members and enabling them to thrive, and is delighted to draw up a sporting calendar for Wales for 2023 to showcase the activity of our membership base!

Wales has a huge range of different sports and physical activity to offer and, courtesy of the brilliant variety within WSA membership, we set out below a great range of opportunities for everyone to engage with the sector throughout the year! Events will be happening right the way through from January to December – so don’t hesitate in engaging, spectating, and even participating where possible!

The WSA will continue to add to the WSA Events Calendar throughout the year.

So, members – don’t forget to use the Events Submission Form or to get in contact to submit any event you might be putting on – whether it’s national or simply local, we want to showcase it!
