Junior Programs (3 – 8 year olds)

Demand for activities for young children has created this exciting program that allows children to try a sport program for the first time in a fun, learning environment.  Get Active Sports Junior Programs have locations throughout Adelaide, Melbourne Sydney and Perth and with this great introductory program for 3 to 8 year olds in either soccer, tennis, basketball, netball, cricket or aussie rules, there are a lot of children enjoying participating in our programs.

All programs are held indoors so the sessions will never be affected by weather!  Sports are rotated through different centres and at different times of the year.

Our “For Juniors” program consists of 6 weekly sessions.  Every week they are at the same time, on the same day and go for 45 minutes.  While the session goes for 45 minutes each drill or skill-game is only planned in small sections to keep everyone’s attention. Our programs concentrate on beginner principles and not game play.

Our 3 and 4 year old groups do require a partner for some activities, so parent or guardian participation is necessary. We find a lot of children when starting out in sport are very apprehensive when arriving at their first session and our research shows us that children learn better when participating with someone they know. Our feedback has also shown us that parents and guardians have also had a great time.

Get Active Sports Junior programs will allow your child to learn at a speed that makes them feel comfortable, and with Mum or Dad assisting, everyone will have a ball. Talking about a ball, included in the enrolment fee is a free ball or bat of the chosen sport so, after your weekly session, you can take your ball or bat home and practice. If you are doing the Tennis program you get a Tennis racquet and bag. Kids always find it exciting when they receive something to take home after paying the enrolment fee and parents love it as well.

Get Active Sports have searched for the best coaches possible to teach these programs with a majority of coaches either being a qualified teacher or hold high accreditation in their chosen sport.  Most importantly they are friendly and really enjoy working with children.
