High 5

High 5 Netball provides the link between First Step Netball and the full 7-a-side rules. The rules have been modified to allow players greater freedom around the court and to give them more time in which to make their decisions and to act upon them. The game encourages maximum participation from those involved and introduces the roles of scorers, timekeepers and centre pass markers.

England Netball believe the game sits well with the requirement of Key Stage 2 of the National Curriculum for girls and boys in Years 5 and 6, (aged 9-11 years) and it is the only game to be played by players of this age.

Tag Rugby

Tag rugby is a fast-moving, non-contact invasion game suitable for boys and girls to play together. Its safe, noncontact nature, combined withthe fun and vibrance of thesport, has meant that mini tagis now the RFU’s official

version of rugby forunder-7s and under-8s.The interchangeable nature ofpossession, leading to rapid switching from attack to defence, means that a range of skills is cultivated and developed. Co-operation, integration and determination, along with individual and collective responsibility, are all key elements in the game of mini tag.

Sports Hall Athletics

Sportshall Primary provides the ideal format in which to introduce young people to athletics and multi-skills competition. Whilst the Agility Challenge offers a structured approach to the teaching of skills and introduces some elements of competition, Sportshall Primary significantly enhances the experience…

Quick Sticks

Quicksticks is a brand new game for 7-11 year-olds which has been specifically designed to introduce the sport to teachers and students who have little or no prior knowledge of hockey. 

Mini Tennis Red

Red ball mini tennis is for players aged 8 and under. It is played on smaller courts with shorter rackets and softer balls. It’s just like the real thing and will give you the chance to have long rallies and play different types of shots, which should be lots of fun.

Tri Golf

The beauty of Tri-Golf is that it can be played anywhere in large groups. Festivals can be organised at any sports centre or large indoor venue. Bringing together teams of pupils from a number of schools festivals can also be used to enhance the Tri-Golf programmes taking place in the individual schools. A typical festival will involve teams of ten children from around ten different schools or, on a smaller scale, five classes from five schools. A teacher/parent can set up ten putting, chipping and hitting challenges in a sportshall (circuit-style) and the teams of children work their way from station to station. With normally a leader in charge of each station, the activities are centrally timed and team points are awarded, all recorded on each team’s scorecard.

Kwik Cricket

ASDA Kwik Cricket is a simple game for all boys and girls from five years of age upwards. It is currently played in 8,000 primary schools and over 4,500 of the 6,000 ECB affiliated clubs. It’s designed to provide children with an introduction to cricket and can be played either indoors or outdoors.
