When children shape their sporting experience, anything is possible.
Voice
Children and young people have the right to express their views which are acted on together in a meaningful way.
Choice
Children and young people have the right to play and shape what play looks like.
Journey
Children and young people have the right to develop holistically, in their own way.
Empowerment is key
We believe that when children make choices, they are far more likely to be retained within the game, but also, they are far more likely to be happier as individuals. Watch Debbie's coaching story here.

Fitness isn’t something that every kid is going to enjoy. Introducing a play cycle in every sport is very important because many kids learn through play. Watch Kenny's coaching story here.

Coaches are catalysts for learning and development and the more motivated and supported they feel to be able to hand ownership to the children, the faster the benefits will be seen. Watch the coaching story here.
