PLAYBALL: THE SPORT PROGRAMME WITH A DIFFERENCE!

Sport and Development Specialists since 1982
The first programme to offer varied, formalised, age specific sport and movement development to children between 2 to 9 years of age.

Playball is progressive: 
Children progress from an informal introduction to SPORT PROGRAMMEball and motor skills, to more structured sports participation.

The younger groups (2-5 years) focus more on motor development (muscle tome, dominancy, bilateral symmetry and mid-line crossing) and motor skills (co-ordination, balance, timing, spatial orientation). The older groups (6-9 years) actually begin to play the following sports: tennis, hockey, cricket, soccer, volleyball, basketball and netball.)

Playball consists of 6 stages:

  • Two can do - 2 to 3 years
  • Watch me @ 3 - 3 to 4 years 
  • Dinkies - 4 to 5 years 
  • Preps - 5 to 6 years 
  • Players - 6 to 7 years 
  • Pre-Season Sport Programme - 7 to 9 years

The first programme to recognise and actively incorporate the development of life skills alongside sport skills.

Playball is educationally based:
Positive coaching methods are used to develop life skills like independence, self-confidence, courage, discipline, concentration and listening skills, good sportsmanship, responsibility and social interaction.

Playball is outcomes-based:
Each stage includes defined age-specific objectives which are realised within the course of the year.

Playball: A Priority
Gross Motor Development provides the basis of all other forms of development - including intellectual and perceptual development. It has been scientifically proven that physical activity has a profound influence on academic performance. If certain development milestones have not been achieved by school-going age, children will find it difficult to cope in the classroom.

In past generations, physical development was part of a natural process. Children spent free time playing, maximising movement and development. Our modern sedentary lifestyle (watching television, spending time in front of the computer) is not doing our children any favours. Using sport as the means, Playball provides children with an opportunity to develop every aspect of their lives.

Two Can Do!
Two is a delightful age filled with curiosity, wonderment, growth and new experiences. TWO CAN DO has been designed specifically for the 2 year old. The programme takes advantage of the exciting changes and accelerated development at this age.
