We are a sports coaching company that prides itself on a professional service, which is inclusive for all who wish to take part, nobody is left out. Our coaches live up to the task of being not only a fantastic coach, but also a great role model for the children who we coach. We currently run sessions in nurseries, primary schools, run cricket sessions, multi sport sessions, one to one coaching sessions, birthday parties and also run holiday camps. One of the main aims of Sporting Futures is to develop children through sport aged 2-16.
Sporting Futures have worked hard to put together a curriculum package that will not only inspire pupils, but will help them to both exceed and excel in competitive sport and other physical demanding activities. We aim to provide schools with an excellent service that will run all year round including internal staff absence days. We use tailored and progressive lesson plans that are evaluated after every lesson. The sessions will provide opportunities for pupils to become physically active and will help increase confidence in a way which will support an individuals health and fitness.
Sporting Futures aims to develop competence and con dence in children so they can excel in a broadrange of physical activities whilst upskilling and supporting star in the process. With us, children havethe opportunity to partake in competitive situations in a wide range of sports throughout the academic year, some of which may be brand new to the children.
We believe that P.E is a fantastic opportunity to
help young people develop valuable life skills and at Sporting Futures we promote this in all that we do.
We will strive to create resilient, determined, engaged learners, who are ready to persevere and face any challenge which may be presented to them through improving their team work and problem solving skills
in a fair and respectful manner. Sporting Futures delivers a high quality of P.E. to schools and ensures that children are receiving sport and physical activity that will help them develop skills in an exciting yet controlled teaching environment through our star setting consistently high expectations of the children.
By the end of each school term, pupils will receive individual assessments, based on the specific sports and activities that have been taught in the school through out the term. These reports will be sent directly to the school to use however they wish. These assessments can be discussed with schools if the school requires anything additional to fit Ofsted criteria.
We provide qualified, enthusiastic coaches that are extensively trained not only in the curriculum but how to best deliver this in a controlled, educational environment that will ensure children are engaged from the start to the end of the session.
“School provision should explicitly recognise the diversity of provision and approaches needed to ensure that physical activity reaches as many children and young people as possible”

Sporting Futures have created a curriculum package that will not only inspire children, but will create an enthusiastic environment for each child to grow through sport. The packages we offer schools are inclusive and promote positive attitudes towards learning by helping the children understand what they are trying to achieve. Each package gives each child an opportunity to succeed and excel in competitive sport and activities through tailored and progressive lessons plans. Each session will provide opportunities for pupils to become physically active and will increase confidence, self-esteem and general well being which will help them develop in all areas of the curriculum. Following each lesson, we ensure to reflect upon our delivery and adapt the subsequent lessons accordingly to meet the emerging needs of each and every child we are working with.
Something that we pride ourselves in is our relationship with our schools and the importance of working collaboratively, to ensure all children are able to reach their full potential. Therefore we believe it is important that we provide assessment date inline with schools framework which can be used to help inform your planning with the fundamental aim of leading to an increase in each child’s achievement and progress across their school life.
“Sporting Futures have provided our children (aged 2-4) with a range of exciting and stimulating activities. The resources are excellent and children are encouraged to develop skills across the three core areas of development as they work as a team, listen to and follow instructions, jumping, balancing, kicking and catching. Staff are friendly and develop strong relationships with the children.
We are a small special school for primary children with social, emotional and mental health needs. As such all of our children have experienced difficulties with learning in some form which can pose challenges for visiting teachers or trainers. We have used a number of such over recent years but with little success as the children were not motivated resulting in a lack of engagement.
I can honestly say that every single child has been fully engaged in every lesson; they enjoy the sessions immensely and eagerly look forward to their turn the following week!
We receive risk assessments and copies of all planning which is of an excellent standard and complies with the national curriculum.The whole company is of a very high quality – friendly, knowledgeable and experienced staff, who arrive fully equipped, organized and on time each week who make excellent relationships with their groups and deliver fun sessions where the children learn the necessary skills to be successful.
“The excellent Sporting Futures team have been working in our school throughout 2014-15. Through their thorough and professional delivery of a skills based curriculum, Liam and the team have improved the confidence of teachers to deliver good and outstanding P.E lessons.”
“Sporting Futures has provided High Coniscliffe Primary School with the skills, expertise, enthusiasm and dedication needed to ensure that the PE and sport premium has improved the quality of the PE and sport activities we offer our pupils. Liam and his coaches have delivered a huge range of sports and activities – everyone looks forward to Tuesdays which is our day of PE! After schools clubs have also been introduced with extremely high levels of interest due to Liam’s encouragement and passion for what he does. Liam provides detailed weekly lesson plans and evaluations and has ‘upskilled’ all our staff and raised our confidence and range of PE and sport we can offer the children.”

A fantastic way to spend the holidays, with a wide range of sports and activities happening daily.
