They currently run a First XV, Second XV and since August 2015 a Ladies XV has also been added. They also raise thousands of pounds for local and national charities in August each year by pulling a 10-tonne truck for 10 miles through the local villages using nothing but people power. This is a very popular event that draws crowds of villagers along the route and also to welcome them back and join in the celebrations. Long Alley Skittles is a sport that is fairly unique to this part of the East Midlands and there are two venues in the village where it can be played, with two teams based at each. The Working Men's Club and Conservative Club both have skittle alleys which play host to competitive league fixtures on most Friday nights throughout the season (usually September to April). More details can be found on the Syston and District Skittle League website. Sileby has a community magazine, "Talk@Sileby". The magazine is published by volunteers three times a year. Electronic copies of all issues can be found on the village website (another project run by volunteers). Sileby Community Centre is located on the High Street and has a large main hall with numerous ancillary rooms including a kitchen and bar, as well as a separate sports hall. The main hall contains a large stage area for performances, with an adjoining room where props can be stored and performers can get changed and access the stage. The Community Centre is housed in what was formerly Sileby Wesleyan Methodist Church that was given to the village some years ago and is now managed by the Parish Council. Many different classes and events regularly take place here for children and adults alike, including badminton, Zumba dancing and junior gymnastics classes. Sileby Library was handed over by L.C.C. to a group of trustees/volunteers in December, 2015 and is now known as Sileby Community Library. There is an active Scout group which meets at its HQ on Brook Street and variously welcomes Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Beavers, Cubs and Scouts on almost every weekday evening. There are now several cafes in the village, including "The Green Place" which also doubles as an eco-friendly and recycling educational centre with natural habitats and small ponds for wildlife for people to enjoy. Sileby has very much shifted from its industrial past to being a commuter town, with almost all the factories now either demolished or converted. The few examples that remain include a hosiery manufacturer and distributor/manufacturer of baby goods such as pushchairs.
