The event was designed to tackle anti-social behaviour by building better relations with local youngsters, the police and organised sports clubs.

Exhibiting organisations included Mansfield Town Football In The Community, Omega Fitness, Switch Up Boxing Academy, and Phoenix Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Fitness.

Attendees were also able to enjoy cut-price food from a wood-fired pizza van, thanks to a donation from Mansfield District Council. ASDA contributed fruit and bottled water for the day.

Event organiser and Forest Town beat manager Pc Colin Bland said: “Like many other areas, Forest Town does experience some anti0social behaviour from young people. When we speak to them they often tell us that they are bored and lack things to do.

“But Mansfield really is a goldmine for great sports clubs and other community groups that are doing fantastic work with young people every day of the week.

“The aim of this event was to bring them into contact with each other in a fun and relaxed environment. A secondary benefit is, of course, to show a more human side of the local policing team and break down some of those barriers that exist.

“I was really pleased with how the day went and would like to thank everybody for taking part. The weather was pretty kind to us in the end and this is definitely something we will be looking to do again later in the year.”
