Why Find Your Game

Sport can feel out of reach — it doesn't have to

Many young people struggle to find activities where they feel successful, included and understood. For some, traditional sports clubs feel overwhelming. For others, earlier experiences have left them believing sport simply isn't for them. Find Your Game is a supportive environment where young people can explore movement, develop skills and experience success at their own pace.

  • Not every child feels comfortable in traditional sports clubs.
  • Some children need smaller groups.
  • Some need more understanding.
  • Some simply haven't found their game yet.

Questions first? Read our Find Your Game FAQs covering trial sessions, groups, EOTAS, SENCO referrals and pricing.

A short summary is plenty, for example "autism, awaiting ADHD assessment". Please don't include reports or detailed clinical information here — we'll agree a secure way to share anything sensitive.

This helps us plan the first few sessions carefully.
