Why Multi-Sport Athletics is very important in youth development
- Max Velocity Sprinting:
Sprinting is the ultimate natural activity for kids—it improves speed, boosts cardiovascular health, and develops proper movement patterns. These skills translate to nearly every sport, helping kids excel across all future disciplines. - Agility:
Children who practice agility drills can move quicker and more precisely, improving reaction times, balance, and coordination. This is especially important for team sports and navigating the challenges of everyday play. - Coordination:
Mastering coordination through drills like kicking, throwing, and catching builds both physical and cognitive connections. Studies show that improved motor skills lead to enhanced academic focus and self-confidence too! - Strength:
Functional strength training using bodyweight and age-appropriate exercises builds resilience, prevents injuries, and enhances overall performance. Strong kids are healthier, happier, and more capable of tackling any challenge.
Why Children need it
- Preparation for All Sports: The skills developed here serve as the bedrock for success in ANY SPORT that they may play in the future, such as soccer, basketball, rugby, athletics, and beyond.

DO we have to do all days of the week or can we pick and choose?
Yes you can pick and choose your days as you wish. Want just Monday morning? No problem. I am on the waitlist, how long before I can get my child on to the program?
When demand is strong which we envisage it to be for some age groups, then we will open up more groups of children each term. The difficulty in the Neutral Bay area is outdoor space being shared by a lot of other sporting groups, so whilst we would love to have 100 kids each day benefitting from our fun programs, this is not always possible due to these external space and booking limitations. We are working on this though so watch this space. And we will of course notify you as soon as a spot becomes available. Does my Child need to be sporty to attend?
In short - No! Whilst it helps if they are sporty and love activity, this program is here to develop kids into enjoying activity and treating it as part of their everyday routine. Sport is fun, which is why it is so big globally, and we think everyone will enjoy something, they just have to give it a go. Late pickup Charge: What happens if I am after 5.30pm pickup?
A late fee of $20 will be charged to any family whose child has not been collected by 5.30pm. After 5.45 pm a late fee of $30 will be charged. What happens if it rains?
We play whatever the weather! It is therefore important to bring a waterproof jacket and sports clothes that can get wet and dirty whilst also keeping them warm (we will provide full list of details upon enrollment of what is needed). In the event of dangerous weather or complete ground closure, there is an undercover shelter which we will utilise for some activities and crafts etc. We will also message you via Whatsapp to say that the session is not running and if you did want to pick your child up early, you can (in line with all other outdoor activity centres). Do you walk all the way to/from anderson and st leonards parks?
Yes we do! Did you know that for each year of age a child is is the amount of kilometers they should be able to walk? So if they are 7 years old, they should be able to walk 7km! Anderson and St Leonards Parks are 1.5km max so this will be a nice warmup and warm down. Regarding safety, we aim to walk along backroads where possible and only use safety crossings provided, ensuring your child's maximum safety. |
