We can help children to
love being active

Children are less active than they were 20 years ago. It’s a fact.

As a nation, we have some of the worst child obesity in the western world. 1 in 3 children now leave primary school overweight or obese.

Plus, 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 4 boys don’t do any sport outside of school.

Yet, there is so much research that active kids do better:

Better academic performance. Better behaviour. Better health. Better lives.

Our mission is to cheerlead all the benefits of being active and reverse the decline of physical activity by working with schools and in our local community to not only provide opportunities but help children to enjoy being active.

HERE'S WHAT OUR
CUSTOMERS
SAY...

We have been extremely impressed with the professionalism of the staff working in the school. They have integrated themselves into our school family and promote the school’s behaviour policy and and virtues. Progressive Kids has allowed us to enhance our extra curricular offer, giving the children in our care more opportunity to participate in a wider range of sporting activities. I would highly recommend Progressive Kids and we look forward to continuing to strengthen the provision we offer.

“Progressive Sports led a very successful competition day at Hob Hill Primary. As well as them organising an enjoyable day of athletics for the children, they also brought two athletes, who inspired the children – and staff! Daniel Caines provided awe and wonder to the children, sharing his experiences as a medal winning international athlete, while Robbie Gleeson showed that children how an aspiring young sportsman can progress in his field. The event was really well run, great fun, and is what we have come to expect from the PS coaches.”

“With 3 little ones (6,5 and 4) we find a holiday club suitable for all of their interests and ages a challenge, however we cannot recommend Progressive Sports highly enough, the coaches are a true credit to the company and are always enthusiastic and have dealt with some of the challenging behaviour they have been presented with from our little ones. We will definitely be booking again, thank you to everyone involved.”
