The masters snooker club has 2 professional tables (+ many standard club tables)with tight pockets and super fast cloth. All the tables I've used there are of a very high quality.
Colstons Rugby team WOW!
Climbing Center in St Werburghs is great. Can be quite packed sometimes but if you're interested in rock-climbing have a look. If you're looking ot start they run introductory courses but have to book well in advance. It's a converted church and is pretty mad to look at when you're inside.
2004: Bristol Rugby club at the Memorial ground. The Dolphin Swimming pool in Filton has recently had a refit and is pretty nice. Horfeild Sports centre is building a swimming pool atm... For martial arts, there are loads of Tang Soo Do clubs scattered around Bristol, meaning that the Bristol championships are quite big and well worth competing in: not having to go far afield for some good competition. see http://www.world-tang-soo-do.org.uk/

Birdwatching? Or Jerome's kickboxing classes above browns restaurant.. well, it's more sport karate really, but very female friendly and lots of nice like minded people.. (you sometimes even get an apology if you're kicked in the head!)
Get your rocks off - The climbing centre in St Werburghs has indoor walls and course for beginners and experts alike. And when you're good, get down the sea walls - as much climbing as you want, outdoor and FREE!
Swimming, Synchrnoised Swimming and Waterpolo at the Bristol University Pool run Mon, Wed, Fri (7pm onwards)& Sun (12.30pm onwards), plus other areas around the city. A cheap and effective way of keeping fit! Don't knock it until you have tried it! For more details email: thorpe_kj@hotmail.com
The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!
In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor
(the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.
We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!
If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.
If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
