Our Young Athletes Weekend Programmes are returning to the Wellington region for 2024.
Join our free and inclusive 5-week programme tailored for children with intellectual disabilities, aged approximately 2-10 years old.
Young Athletes introduces children to fundamental motor and sports skills, such as running, kicking, and throwing. Young Athletes also focuses on social skills, helping children interact with each other and develop communication, learning and interpersonal skills.

We endeavour to offer sessions based on age-groupings (ie. Approx 2-5 and 6-10yrs old), however final groupings will be dependent on the number of registered young athletes. Sessions will be around 40mins long and held between 9:30-11:30am (Hutt Valley) and 1:30-3:30pm (Plimmerton)
