Sports Coaching – Early years

Giving children the best start in life means keeping them active, happy and healthy from the very beginning. At Super Star Sport, we deliver specialist sports coaching for nurseries, preschools and early years settings that develops physical skills, confidence and a lifelong love of movement.

Our sessions are fully aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework and built around fun, positivity, enthusiasm and safety, the values at the heart of everything we do.

Our Early Years Sporting Curriculum

We’ve created a structured early years programme built on six core sports, designed specifically for children aged 2–5. Each sport introduces key movement skills in a playful, age‑appropriate way:

Mini Football

  • Dribbling, passing and coordination games
  • Teamwork and sharing skills
  • Fun challenges using smaller equipment for little feet

Mini Rugby

  • Basic handling and evasion games (non‑contact)
  • Balancing fun and safety while learning teamwork
  • Great for developing gross motor skills and agility

Mini Gymnastics

  • Rolling, balancing and climbing activities
  • Building core strength and flexibility
  • Safe introduction to mats, benches and soft play equipment

Mini Basketball

  • Throwing, catching and aiming at lower hoops
  • Hand‑eye coordination and team play
  • Exciting mini‑games that build confidence and focus

Mini Athletics

  • Running, jumping and throwing basics
  • Fun races and movement challenges
  • Encourages personal bests and goal setting

Super Multi Sports

  • A mix of all our sports for variety and all‑round development
  • Great for nurseries who want children to try something new each week
  • Builds fundamental movement skills across multiple disciplines

How We Work with Nurseries

We partner with nurseries to deliver weekly sports classes that are fully planned and structured around our 6–8 week sporting curriculum. Each block focuses on one of our core sports, from mini football to gymnastics, before introducing a new sport, giving children the chance to try different activities across the year.

Our coaches bring all the equipment needed, so nurseries simply provide the children and a safe space to play. Sessions are fun, positive and full of energy, designed to keep every child engaged while building key movement skills and confidence.
