BUILDING CONFIDENT KIDS THROUGH SPORT

Fun, structured sessions run at school by teachers kids already know.

Rookies Club is a school-based sports program led by teachers and supported by elite athletes. It’s designed to help kids stay active, build confidence and feel a strong sense of belonging — all in a safe, familiar environment right at school.

WHAT IS ROOKIES?

MORE THAN SPORT. IT'S A COMMUNITY

Rookies Club is a before and after-school sports program and holiday camp experience run on school grounds by teachers your children already know and trust.

Every session blends movement, teamwork and fun — with a strong focus on confidence, kindness and participation. Kids don’t need to be “sporty” to join Rookies. They just need a willingness to have a go.

Programs are shaped with input from elite athletes, who help guide the activities, share mindset lessons and visit schools throughout the year. The result is a program that feels exciting and inspiring, while still grounded in care, safety and school values.

Rookies is designed to feel like a natural extension of school life — familiar, supportive and welcoming for every child.

WHAT A ROOKIES SESSION LOOKS LIKE

Every Rookies session is structured, energetic and fun — while still flexible enough to meet kids where they’re at.

Sessions typically include:

  • Warm-up games and movement activities

  • Team-based challenges that build cooperation

  • Skill development through play

  • Encouragement, reflection and cool-down

Activities are adapted for different ages and abilities, and teachers are always focused on creating a positive, supportive atmosphere where kids feel safe to try new things.
