Kick Start Sports are designed for children ages 3–6 who are ready to explore the world of sports in a fun, welcoming, and supportive environment. Whether your child is trying a sport for the very first time or looking to gain confidence in small group activities, Kick Start Sports provides the perfect introduction.
Activities are carefully designed to help children grow in three key areas:
- Motor Skill Development – practicing age-appropriate movements like running, jumping, balancing, and hand-eye coordination.
- Confidence Building – learning new skills in a supportive setting that encourages personal progress and celebrates effort.
- Socialization – participating in small group activities that foster teamwork, cooperation, and fun with peers.
Kick Start Sports is not about competition — it’s about creating a positive first experience in sports that helps children develop a love of movement, learn to try new things, and build the confidence to succeed both on and off the field. See our current offerings in the activities below!
