Active Future Summer Futsal Camp

Welcome to the Active Future Summer Futsal Camp! Join us for an action-packed, pressure-free football and futsal experience designed specifically for ages 11 to 16. Featuring fast-paced tournament-style matches and high-level coaching, our sessions include a fantastic mix of technical drills and fun challenges to keep everyone moving.

We uniquely design our activities to engage absolutely everyone—even the typically "un-sporty" or disengaged young person—by removing traditional, elite competition to create a highly inclusive environment. We focus heavily on fundamental movement skills, close ball control, and creative problem-solving to boost self-esteem, build resilience, and guarantee fun.

Lunch & Nutrition
A fresh, healthy lunch and snacks are provided daily, prepared directly by our team. Meals are served "home style" with young people and coaches sitting together communally to make lunch a positive, inclusive social event. During lunch, our coaches also run a quick, interactive "Fuel for Sport" game to discuss how healthy food helps our bodies recover!

Inclusion & SEND
Every child is welcome. Our camp relies on inclusive play to create a psychologically safe environment where young people with neurodivergent needs (such as ADHD or ASD) can truly thrive. Our venue at Manor Sports Centre is fully wheelchair accessible, and our staff are trained in Autism Awareness and Positive Behaviour Support. If your child requires a visual timetable, a pre-camp reassurance call, or wishes to attend with their own Personal Assistant, please just let us know!

While we keep things flexible to suit the energy levels of the group, a typical day at our camp looks like this:

A typical day
Morning: Welcome, fun warm-up games, and technical skill challenges.
Mid-Morning: Break time and healthy snacks.
Late Morning: Fast-paced, pressure-free tournament matches.
Lunch: A communal hot meal provided by The Butchers Cat, featuring our quick "Fuel for Sport" chat.
Afternoon: Final futsal games, awards for effort, and cool down!

Please send your child in comfortable athletic clothing (sports kit) and indoor trainers (no boots with studs, please!). Every child will also need a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated during the matches. We provide absolutely all the sporting equipment, plus a hot lunch and snacks, so there is no need to pack a lunch unless your child has very specific dietary requirements.

A few terms & conditions from Brighton & Hove City Council:
• Eligibility criteria – Brighton & Hove HAF funded places are for children and young people in reception to year 11 who receive benefits-related free school meals.
• Limits on bookings – Over Summer, Eequ will permit each eligible participant to be booked on to 16 HAF places across all providers in the city. If a session is not attended, HAF places cannot be added back on to an individual’s allocation, regardless of reason. It is therefore important that sessions are cancelled before the activity starts, and ideally giving a minimum of a few days’ notice where possible to allow other children to benefit. Bookings can be managed by the Booker by logging into Eequ and reviewing their Schedule.
