Sportball!
A non-competitive sports program for girls and boys aged 16 months– 8 years old.
Sportball, a national children's sport-education franchise, will be running an exhibition all day at Fun Day. Sportball develops movement skills, strength, social skill, and self-esteem in the early years. Children are placed in age-appropriate classes in which they learn and refine sports skills in a positive, encouraging atmosphere.
Sportball programs focus on seven sports: hockey, soccer, basketball, baseball, volleyball, tennis, and golf. Children are taught the fundamental skills of each sport and practice, and refine, these skills individually and in game situations.
Sportball coaches are generally young adults, between 18 and 35, who are studying, or have degrees in, kinesiology, early childhood education, recreational management, and physical education. Each Sportball coach has passed police screening and is first-aid and CPR certified. All coaches undergo extensive initial and ongoing training in Sportball methodology and practices.
Sportball offers drop-off programs (ages 3-8) and parent-and-tot programs (16 months–3 years) year round. Programs generally run for 10–13 weeks and are held once a week for an hour.
They also do birthday parties. Their enthusiastic coaches will run your party from start to finish. No minimum number of children is required.
The CCFC thanks Alex, and the other Sportball coaches, for jumping on board with us to help make this day fun for the kids!
