Preschool Sports

Little Kickers - Jr Soccer Skills and games
Little Kickers hold four different football classes each tailored to a different age group. However, we have two core beliefs that we take into every session.

Firstly, we believe in something we call “Play not Push”. It means teaching football in a fun, pressure-free environment. We want to give children a positive introduction to sport as a whole, not just football, so they’re more likely to stay healthy and active throughout their lives.

Secondly, we believe football can be educational. Coached in the right way it can stimulate imagination and aid early development skills such as learning colours and numbers, following instructions and playing as a team.

Little kickers is an indoor soccor skills program. Sessions are avalible from 1.5 years of age.

Mini Gymnastics: 4 years of age.
Designed for children 4 years of age Mini gymnastics is the perfect way to get your little one moving.
Each session gives the opportunity to have a go on the gymnastics equipment in a safe and engaging way.
Mini’s provides a great base for not only gymnastics but all sports. Students start to build neuromuscular patterning for coordination, strength in movement and how to move safely.
Gymnastics assists in developing strong and healthy bones, increases coordination and proprioceptive awareness. Being in a group environment while being physically active increases social and listening skills as well as being mindful towards others.
WHEN: Monday 1.30pm and Saturday 9am.
COST: $15.85

Mini Stars - 6mth to 4yo.

Adelaide Hill Rec Centre’s Mini Stars Free Play classes are supervised, unstructured, child-initiated sessions that allow children to explore the venue in their own time and on their own terms. Held in our Gymnastics hall they kids gain the oppertunity to try our equipment such as trampolines, balance beams, bars, aswell as a variaty of games and toys. 
Free play develops essential gross and fine motor skills as children run, jump, swing, and balance in our well-equipped facility with participants getting to use their imagination through fundamental movement.
 
While we do have Adelaide Hills Recreation Centre staff supervising and available through these sessions, due to the developmental stage of this age group, parent participation is required throughout the entire session. This allows a higher range of control and safety and the ability to share in the fun!

WHEN: Tuesdays and Thursday 9.30am & 10.30am
Wednesday 9.30am
COST: $8.00 per child.
BOOKINGS: Not required.

Ready Steady Go Kids
Delivering a combination of physical and emotional benefits, the Ready Steady Go Kids program is designed to build confidence and selfesteem, providing a platform of knowledge and boosting school readiness skills.

The Ready Steady Go Kids program is designed to introduce preschoolers to the fundamentals of 10 different sports (soccer, tennis, basketball, hockey, golf, AFL, rugby, athletics, cricket and T-ball).
Each term, 5 sports are taught in 2 week blocks which is considered sufficient time to introduce and reinforce the basic concepts and motor patterns. By rotating the sports every 2 weeks we also decrease the likelihood of children becoming disinterested in a particular activity.

The 3 age groups are
Get Ready: 1.5 - 2.5 years old
Steady: 3 - 4 years old
GO: 4-6years old.
