Our ethos

At ABC Sports Stars, we strive to provide a unique learning structure that allows children to have fun. Our main philosophy is ABC: Agility, Balance, and Coordination. We aim to create sports stars of the future, whilst incorporating the EYFS guidelines in all of our sessions.

 

We also utilise specific topics each month, for children to learn and develop a new skill. Combined with our coaching methods we feel the children will not only benefit physically, but also mentally.
