The activities included Boccia, New age Kurling and lots of other adapted activities.
We took a squad of 6 children who thoroughly enjoyed their experience.

On Monday 5th November we were given the brilliant opportunity to be coached by some newly trained coaches. It is a program that focuses on girls engagement and enthusiasm for Tennis. We took a mixture of 18 very excited year 1 and 2 girls.
The girls were ecstatic to be traveling on a double decker bus.
They were introduced to many different skills using lots of equipment and methods.
The girls then finished with a relay race testing the skills they had learnt.
Aleeza said “I really enjoyed when we had to get into groups and work as a team to do the skills”.
Thank You so much to Claire from Edgbaston Priory Tennis for inviting us and giving the girls such a brilliant opportunity and experience.
