We ignite passion for sports in children, fostering teamwork and resilience in a safe, energetic environment.

  • Dynamic After-School Fun

    Spark Sports Coaching offers a range of sports coaching services that are designed to meet the needs of every school regardless of size or budget. 

    We believe that coaching is more than teaching children a set of skills linked to a sport but introducing the unseen mindsets, dispositions and life skills that children learn from taking part in our sessions. We aim to support children by building on their strengths to give them the confidence to tackle their weaknesses.

    Children learn how to lead and follow well, how to make mistakes in a safe environment, how to set and achieve goals, control emotions, win and lose with class and dignity, to be healthy and disciplined, respect others and work as a team. 

    Spark can support teaching staff deliver their curriculum and lead teacher training sessions during the school day, as well as providing parents and carers with childcare outside of school hours, during the school holidays and even weekend birthday parties too. 

    Spark coaches are fun, friendly, fully insured, DBS checked and experienced in delivering quality sport and physical activity sessions to primary school children in Bath.
