Leisure and Club
Culture
a specific sport or learning a specific art craft is
the main purpose, but most clubs are a mixture
of the two.
Below you will find an English overview of
Leisure Activities in Esbjerg Area, Ribe and
Bramming including addresses, minimum age for
team registration and a designated Newcomer
Buddy you can reach out to for starting up in
each club. The Newcomer Buddy can help you
with information about teams and will find
someone to take you to your first club training
and introduce you to your team, if you wish.
In Denmark you will, in most cases, find shared
men’s changing rooms and shared women’s
changing rooms. The changing rooms often
include shower facilities. Most Danes use these
facilities for changing and showering, however it
is important to stress that, in most cases, using
these facilities is optional and it is perfectly
acceptable to change and shower at home if you
wish, for almost all activities but swimming.
Most of the club websites are in Danish; however
the outlined clubs welcome English speakers and
below you will find an English introduction to
each club.
Many of the clubs which are established as
associations are cheaper to join than the
commercial clubs, mainly because the
associations are non-profit and in many cases
training is run by volunteers.
Many indoor club activities start their yearly
season around August or September and many
outdoor club activities start their yearly season
around April or May.
Another way to get into club life is to volunteer
for the kids’ teams, for example, by training the
junior teams, making costumes for the kids’
theatre performances, doing the laundry for the
kids’ training clothes, or joining the scouts on
tours to help out with practical stuff.
Most clubs offer 1- 4 training sessions for free
before asking you to decide on a membership,
and most club teams meet up once or twice a
week during scheduled hours.
Club life in Denmark is just as much about
socializing as it is about spare time interests.
After 4 pm, when you are wondering where to
find all the Danish people, the clubs are where
you need to turn. Clubs are where Danish people
meet up, hang out, make friends and socialize.
Most clubs have additional activities where
members meet up for socializing events such as
dining together, tours, shows or even summer
parties or Christmas parties.
The below list of clubs, which offer Newcomer
Buddies, include both commercial leisure clubs
and non-profit associations. If you have
suggestions for clubs to be included, please
inform us at [email protected].
You will also find a guide to many of the sport
activities in Danish at www.nysport.dk/ or
dbu.dk.
You will find clubs where socializing is the main
purpose and you will find clubs where training for
