Sports For All

Inclusive Sports Project Overview

The Sports For All Project is an exciting, practical programme developed by Junior ChangeMakers CIC in partnership with Mark Bennett Sports Coaching. It gives children of all abilities the opportunity to get active, try something different and experience how sport can be played, enjoyed and competed in different ways.

 

Through fun, hands-on activities, children develop new skills, confidence and teamwork while discovering the world of inclusive and adapted sport. At its heart, Sports For All is about celebrating different abilities, breaking down barriers to participation and showing children that everyone can find a way to get involved, achieve and enjoy being active.

 

Sports For All is delivered by our Junior ChangeMaker Coaches as a half-term or whole-term extracurricular club, or as an action-packed half-day or full-day enrichment workshop, giving schools and organisations flexible ways to bring an exciting inclusive sports experience to their children.

Building Your Sports For All Bespoke Programme

Schools and organisations can build their own Sports For All programme by selecting from the range of sports, circuits and challenges, creating a programme that best suits their participants, setting and available time.

The Sports For All Passport and Achievement Stickers

Children and young people completing the full Sports For All programme can collect achievement stickers as they progress, adding each one to a  Sports For All Passport to celebrate the sports they try, challenges they complete and inclusive skills they develop along the way. Each sticker marks another step in their journey, building towards the final Ultimate All-Star Award.
