Quality sport and activity instruction that is age-appropriate and offers sufficient choice to attract boys and girls across the entire age range of 5-12 years.

Activate Sport have grown from providing specialist football and cricket courses in 2004 to the sport, activity and adventure camps run today; offering a range of key sports, multi-sport, multi-activity and dance & drama.

Our dynamic, enthusiastic and motivated team are continually enhancing our courses and content to ensure that all children enjoy the best possible Activate Sport camp experience, regardless of age or ability level.

Our Adventure camps continue to evolve and offer new and exciting activities for children to try. These include archery, climbing & abseiling, rock-it-ball and inflatable activities such as Bungee Running. Look out for more fun activities added to the curriculum this year.

Our Gold Medal Games camps offer a great opportunity for participants to try Olympic sports and with the next games just around the corner it will give children a chance to participate in mainstream individual and team sports as well as some that are not so well known.

All of our programmes are written and delivered by qualified professional instructors

In addition to this we are fortunate to have professional sports people who, as well as being integral and committed members of the Activate Sport team, are involved with devising some of the key sport programmes:

Luke Sutton, a founder of Activate Sport and Derbyshire County Cricket Club player, devises our cricket programme and visits all of our locations to lend a hand to the instructors when he's not on the road with Derbyshire.

We are delighted to be running the Andrew Flintoff Cricket Academy. This year the Academy, for children aged 5-16 years, will operate at over 40 venues across the UK with Fred or another international cricketer visiting every course to give the children a truly memorable experience.

The Lee Westwood Golf Academyreturns this summer for children aged 7-16 years. We congratulate Lee on becoming the world number 1 player in 2010 and look forward to working with him again this summer. Lee’s academies will be at 10 golf clubs throughout the UK with Lee or a European tour player visiting every camp. Look out for our 5-day residential course at Bloxham School.

Activate Sport are proud to manage the Matt Dawson Rugby Academy. Matt will be visiting every venue and key features include rehab and pre-hab sessions and our fuel for sport programme. The course aims to give children aged 7-16 years a true insight into the world of professional rugby.

2010 saw the launch of the International Netball Roadshow. The Roadshow 3-day course has one of our head coaches, Tracey Neville, Karen Atkinson and Olivia Young leading each programme. Tracey, Karen and Olivia have over 250 England caps between them, representing a fantastic opportunity for netball playing children aged 7-16 years in the UK.

This year we are again managing the Shane Williams Rugby Academy throughout Wales. In 2008 Shane was voted World Player of the Year, and he'll be visiting each of his academies to pass on tips to youngsters aged 7-16 years. Key features of the academy are speed, agility and quickness sessions and an opportunity to win a day with Shane at the Ospreys training ground.

2011 sees the launch of the Annabel Croft Tennis Academy for children aged 5-16 years. With a programme designed by Annabel, attendees are guaranteed a fantastic opportunity to improve their tennis skills from the former British number 1. The academy runs all year round at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton

Hockey Masterclass launches in 2011 with a curriculum designed by Crista Cullen, one of the leading female players in the UK. Each course will be led by a current GB or England international on one of the days, providing children aged 7-16 years with an opportunity to learn from the very best players.

We have some fantastic instructors working on all of our courses and their tireless efforts and boundless enthusiasm help to make each week on an Activate Sport camp one to remember.

We look forward to welcoming both parents and children to all of our camps in 2012.
