Play Their Way

Led by the Children’s Coaching Collaborative, Play Their Way aims to kick-start a movement of child-first coaches, organisations and people changing the game from the ground up.

We all know that children and young people aren’t getting enough exercise. But why is that?

According to Sport England’s Active Lives survey (2021-22), only 47% of children who regularly exercise strongly agree that they enjoy taking part in sport and physical activity – a figure that’s still down on pre-pandemic levels (51%) which were already low.

And if most kids aren’t enjoying it, we’re missing the mark – and putting millions of young people off sport and exercise for life.
