Our coaches run the whole thing, you just show up and celebrate. Multi-Sport games, team challenges, and pure fun. [Plan a Party](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/kids-birthday-parties) Why The Academy ## Not just after school care. A genuine development program. Every program element is designed around one goal: giving your child the physical foundations to thrive in every sport they play — and in life. ### Speed & Agility Training Dedicated sprinting and change-of-direction drills every session — the same fundamentals taught in elite youth academies, calibrated for 5–12 year olds. Kids get measurably faster. ### Physical Assessment Reporting Parents receive a full [Physical report](https://www.multisportgames.com.au#mska-difference-heading) tracking their child's Speed, Agility, Strength, Stamina, and Coordination against age-specific benchmarks every term. We use this data to identify movement gaps and turn physical weaknesses into strengths, term on term. The best bit, this reporting is included in your term fee. ### Walking Bus from School Gates Our supervised walking bus collects children from partner school gates and takes them directly to the program. Routes currently run from Neutral Bay Public School, Marist Catholic College North Shore and Greenwich Public School. No 3pm panic for parents. No gap in the day for kids. ### WWCC-Cleared Qualified Coaches All coaches hold current Working With Children Check clearances and are trained in foundational movement skills, athletic performance principles, and child-appropriate behaviour management. ### Multi-Sport Variety Prevents Burnout By rotating across football, t-ball, touch rugby and more, the program eliminates the overuse injury risk and early burnout that single-sport specialisation causes in children under 12. ### Small Groups, Real Coaching Group sizes are deliberately limited so every child receives individual coaching attention — not just participation supervision. This is the difference between a development program and a babysitting service. The Numbers ## Why the research backs multi-sport development The science on early athletic development is clear — and it shapes every session we run. 70% Higher injury risk from early single-sport specialisation in children under 12 [BJSM 2018](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5966760/) 1 in 5 Australian children meet daily physical activity guidelines [AIHW 2022](https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/physical-activity/physical-activity-across-the-life-stages) 2× More likely to stay active through adolescence when children play multiple sports early [BMJ](https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/52/3/145) 5–12 The critical developmental window for foundational movement skill acquisition — the LTAD “Learning to Train” phase Parent Feedback ## What North Shore families say Real feedback from parents at Neutral Bay Public School, Marist Catholic College North Shore, Lane Cove and Greenwich. ★★★★★ “ > “My son has been in the program for two terms and the difference is remarkable. His soccer sports coach commented on how much faster and more coordinated he’s become. But the best part is he wants to go every single day.” S Sarah M. Mum of a Year 5 student, Neutral Bay ★★★★★ “ > “The walking bus system has genuinely changed our afternoons. I used to leave work early twice a week — now I don’t have to. And knowing she’s not just sitting around but actually doing something healthy and sporty? That’s a huge bonus.” J James T. Dad of a Year 4 student, Neutral Bay ★★★★★ “ > “Excellent program tailored to foster a life-long love of exercise and sports performance in kids at every level of ability and skills. The Coaches are patient and encouraging and I could not have found better people to entrust my child love of sports to! Highly recommended!” K Karen. Mum of two, Cremorne Our Mission ## We’re building future athletes one session at a time The Multi-Sport Kids Academy was built on a single conviction: the after school slot is the most important two hours in a child’s physical development and most programs waste it. We exist to fill that gap. Using the principles of long-term athletic development, we teach children aged 5–12 the foundational physical skills — speed, agility, coordination, balance — that transfer to every sport they’ll ever play. - Structured curriculum aligned with the LTAD framework - Multi-sport sessions across Football, T-Ball, Touch Rugby and more - Qualified coaches with WWCC clearances and HLTAID012 First Aid trained - Walking bus from Neutral Bay, Marist Catholic College North Shore and Greenwich schools - School holiday camps every break — no development gap - Free Trial — no commitment, no cost [About us](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/about-us) Get in Touch ## Ready to see the program in action?

FAQ ## Common questions from North Shore parents Can’t find the answer here? [Contact us](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/#enquire) or download the [free parent guide](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/parent-guide). What age group is the program for? + The Academy is designed specifically for children aged 5–12. This window corresponds to the “Learning to Train” phase in the Long-Term Athlete Development framework — where foundational movement skills have their greatest impact on long-term athletic development. If your child is turning 5 soon, [contact us](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/#enquire) to discuss the right start time. How does the walking bus from school work? + A qualified, WWCC-cleared coach collects enrolled children from the designated pickup point at their school gate at the end of the school day. We currently run walking bus routes from Neutral Bay Public School, Marist Catholic College North Shore and Greenwich Public School (Kingslangley campus). The group walks together to the training venue under full supervision. Parents simply collect their child from the venue at the end of the session. Can I try before committing to a full term? + Yes — Your child can join a full session at no cost and with no obligation. You’re welcome to watch from the sideline. Most families who attend a trial, enrol within the week. [Register here](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/#enquire) — spots are limited. My child already plays weekend club sport. Is this too much? + The Academy is designed to complement club sport, not compete with it. The skills developed here — speed, agility, coordination — directly improve your child’s performance in their weekend sport. Because we use varied movement patterns rather than intensifying one sport’s mechanics, the Academy reduces overuse injury risk rather than adding to it. Parents regularly hear from club coaches that their child’s movement quality has improved since joining. What happens during school holidays? + Every school break, we run intensive multi-sport holiday camps — half-day programs with sport rotations, athletic challenges, and team competitions. These are open to both existing members and new families. [View and book a school holiday camp](https://www.multisportgames.com.au/holiday-camps).
