The Ageas Bowl is the home of Hampshire Cricket and Hilton at The Ageas Bowl - but the venue's offering doesn't end there.
The world-class venue is also home to an elite sports medicine centre, the Hampshire Wellbeing Centre, which offers a vast range of services and treats professional athletes as well as the general public.
The venue's Colin Ingleby-Mackenzie stand plays home to the rapidly expanding Poseidon Boxing Club, an amateur club which welcomes everyone and anyone, with no pressure to compete. The start of 2018 also saw the venue become the training facility for Choi Kwang Do martial arts and self defence classes, a great way to keep fit, feel safe and have fun.
