PLAY SPORTS JUNIORS AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS
EXTERNAL SPORT PROVIDERS FOR SCHOOLS
We can strengthen your school’s sports offer, without necessarily costing you any money, time or resources!
Play Sports Juniors is designed to give children greater access to sport beyond the core PE curriculum and recommended weekly activity hours, without adding extra pressure to your school’s timetable or budget.
Aimed at Years 1-6, our term-time, extra-curricular sessions introduce children to a range of sports in a fun, social and supportive environment.
Schools can choose from over 8 different sports, with the flexibility to offer one sport throughout the year, different sports for different age groups, or allow us to plan and deliver a varied programme across the whole school year.
For Play Netball, one of the most important things to us is promoting the social side of sport and the sense of belonging to a team. Playing in a team has huge personal, social and emotional benefits and we firmly believe that there is a sport for everyone.
If children can have positive experiences of sport during their time at school, they can bring these experiences into their adult lives, continuing to stay active and enjoy taking on new sports and challenges in the future.

the sessions
Our sessions are run by experienced and trained Play Sports Juniors coaches, with activities tailored to the age and ability of the children taking part. No previous experience is needed, whether children already play regularly or are trying a sport for the first time, everyone is encouraged to get involved.
We want every child to enjoy being active and have the opportunity to find a sport they love. Through both team and individual sports, children can discover their strengths, build confidence and character, and develop key skills including agility, balance, coordination and teamwork.
We can plan sport across the academic year, whether that’s one sport throughout, a different sport each term, or a programme tailored to your school, just let us know what you’re thinking and our team will create the perfect for your school.

OUR COACHES
One of the most important things our Coaches promote is the social side of sport and the sense of belonging to a team.
We are proud of the high standard of coaches that work across our Netball Academy and Play Sports Juniors school clubs. We select our Academy coaching squad, and partner schools with coaches that have a strong background to the sport they teach, ensuring they not only possess the skills and knowledge required to teach the game but also have a genuine passion for helping young players develop.
Each coach will have passed a 2-stage interview, and will fulfil our compulsory training before they are able to start coaching. Every coach will have passed and will hold: First Aid Training, DBS Checks & Safeguard training.
Our coaches are responsible for bringing the necessary equipment and First Aid Kit to every session. This includes bringing either a tablet, or work-phone which holds the register, medical information, and contact details for the children.
