What physical activity will my child take part in?
At the heart of our Holiday Club are a range of exciting, high-energy sports designed to boost confidence, encourage teamwork and get every child moving. Each activity is delivered by our experienced sports leaders and teachers, ensuring sessions are safe, inclusive and accessible for all abilities. Basketball Children will learn fundamental basketball skills such as dribbling, passing, shooting and teamwork through a mix of fun drills and fast-paced mini games. Our coaches focus on building coordination, communication and confidence, helping every child feel successful — whether they’re brand new to the sport or already love it. Quidditch Inspired by the magical world of quidditch, this imaginative, fast-moving game introduces children to running, dodging, teamwork and tactical thinking. Using adapted equipment and simplified rules, our version is fully safe and inclusive. It’s a fantastic way for children to immerse themselves in a creative game that blends sport with storytelling and adventure. Dodgeball A firm favourite, dodgeball keeps children active, engaged and smiling throughout. With soft, child-friendly balls and clear safety rules, dodgeball promotes agility, quick thinking and great sportsmanship. Our coaches ensure every game is fair, supportive and fun, making it a brilliant activity for building confidence and participation. Softball Softball provides a fantastic introduction to striking and fielding games in a fun and supportive environment. Children will develop skills such as throwing, catching, batting and teamwork through engaging activities and small-sided games. Softball encourages communication, coordination and perseverance, while giving participants the opportunity to experience success regardless of their previous sporting experience. The simple rules and inclusive format make it accessible and enjoyable for children of all ages and abilities. FootGolf Combining the best elements of football and golf, FootGolf is a fun and unique activity that challenges children's accuracy, concentration and problem-solving skills. Players aim to kick a football into oversized holes in as few attempts as possible, navigating a variety of creative obstacles and challenges along the way. FootGolf promotes patience, self-improvement and healthy competition while providing an enjoyable outdoor activity suitable for all skill levels. UV Dodgeball UV Dodgeball takes one of our most popular activities and adds an exciting glow-in-the-dark twist. Played under ultraviolet lighting with fluorescent equipment and markings, this immersive experience creates a memorable and energetic environment that children absolutely love. Alongside developing agility, reactions and teamwork, UV Dodgeball encourages participation from children who may not normally engage in traditional sports, making it an inclusive and highly engaging activity for everyone involved. These activities are designed to keep children physically active, energised and excited to take part, while helping them develop important life skills such as teamwork, resilience, communication and confidence. By offering a variety of sports and games, we ensure every child can find an activity they enjoy, regardless of their starting point, experience or ability level.
