After School Clubs

With The Ball extend and enrich sports experiences through our after school and community club programs.

We have found that children who attend at least one of our after school clubs each term improve by an average of 18% across the whole PE curriculum, in comparison to those who do not.  We guarantee to fuel life changing sports experiences in every child irrespective of their age, ability or experience. Our sessions are tailored to meet their individual needs in an environment where they feel safe.

With The Ball extend and enrich sports experiences through our after school and community club programs. What's more, all children who attend will be invited to join us at our next
Sports Festival!

“Both my children have attended “With the Ball” after school clubs and they absolutely love going. Ritchie and the team are amazing - making everyone feel included no matter what their ability. We have also been to two festivals now and they are so much fun. It’s great that all children earn a medal and a certificate no matter what  place their team finishes in.”

Freqently Asked Questions

What is the age range?

Our after school clubs are for all children from reception to year 6.

Does my child need experience before attending?

Your child does not need prior experience to attend our after school clubs. Our clubs are designed to develop all children regardless of previous experience or ability.

Can a child from any school attend a club?

Our after school clubs are only for children who attend the school the clubs are for.

Our holiday clubs and evening CheerDance sessions are open to everyone, regardless of your child's school.

Can my child join once the club has started?

Yes! We do not have a sign up deadline, therefore as long as a club has availability, you can book at any point.

Do your clubs continue in all weather conditions?

Absolutely, unless the weather is deemed to be dangerous for the children and staff.

What does my child need to bring to the club?

Please make sure your child wears weather and sports appropriate clothing/footwear and a refillable water bottle. For clubs which need additional sports equipment (football shinguards etc), you will be informed prior to the start of the club.

Will my child be collected from their class room?

Children will either be collected from their classroom by one of our coaches or brought to us by their class teacher. All school staff will be made aware of who is attending the after school club and where they need to be taken before the start of the club.

Where do I collect my child at pick up time?

Release points will vary for each school. Usually we will release children from the school’s office or a classroom. If an alternative pick up point is required we will communicate this before the start of the club.

What if someone else is collecting my child?

We do not allow children to be collected from our clubs by adults other than their primary carers unless explicit permission has been given in writing. This can be done via email, WhatsApp or the special requests box during the sign-up procedure.

What if I am late to collect my child?

Arriving late to collect your child can lead to a range of safeguarding issues. We understand that these things do happen and will show reasonable leniency when we can. However, we reserve the right to charge a £25 compensation fee for each occurrence of a late collection.

Do you offer a discount for children who receive Pupil Premium Funding?

Yes, we offer a 33% discount for any children who received pupil premium funding. Please contact us for further details and to receive your discount code.

Do you offer sibling discounts?

Unfortunately we do not.

How do I book my child's space?

What if my child has additional needs?

We strive to give every child an equal opportunity to enjoy all sports. If your child requires additional support or other careful considerations we ask you to include any details in the sign up form or contact us with further details. We do not have access to a child's EHCP or behaviour plans from the school.

What if my child has a medical condition?

All relevant medical conditions must be disclosed when completing your booking. We will not have access to any medication or care plans that your child has at school (asthma inhaler, EpiPen’s, written plans etc) and you need to provide this for their time at the club.

Do you take photos and videos?

Yes, where photo permission has been granted, we may take photos or videos which may be used as a coaching resource, on our website, newsletters, social media or future brochures. All files will be stored securely. Children will not be named.

What if I do not want my child’s photo/video taken?

Where photo permission has not been granted, we may take photos or videos but will ensure that your child/ren cannot be identified if they are used as a coaching resource, on our website, newsletters, social media or future brochures. All files will be stored securely. Children will not be named.

Can my child walk home on their own?

We do not allow children to walk home alone unless explicit permission has been given in writing. This can be done via email, Whatsapp, or the special requests box during the sign up procedure. Where such permission is given, we cannot take responsibility for your child once they are released from our duty of care.

My child is ill, should they attend?

You must refrain from bringing your child to a club if they have had any form of illness within 48 hours of the club.

Missed or cancelled clubs?

We do not issue refunds for missed sessions due to your own circumstances or your child's school circumstances. Where a class has been cancelled due to our own circumstances, we will offer a make-up session, credit or full refund. Where a club has not reached the minimum numbers and as a result is cancelled the full amount will be refunded.
