Multi-sport program

By the end of the week your kids will have a new spring in their step!

Your child will be placed with players of a similar age and skill level. They will develop sport-specific and other life skills across a range of new and traditional sports.

Your kids will:

• learn fundamental motor skills crucial to ball sports and activities
• practise and refine their skills through a variety of drills and games
• learn how to play team-sports such as:
  • dodge-ball
  • futsal
  • handball
  • netball
  • soccer
  • basketball
• improve their general fitness and confidence.
