Sport Unlimited Year 3

Sport Unlimited is Sport England's youth sports programme which filters funding to the local communities through the County Sport Partnerships (Tyne and Wear Sport).

The Sports Unlimited programme is targeted at 'semi sporty' young people, or young people who have some interest in sport but who are not involved in community or club sport, with aim of achieving the governments target of young people taking part in 5hrs of high quality sport and PE.

Here's how the programme works; local providers or clubs organise high quality 10 week taster sessions designed to attract and interest youngsters to get involved and sign up for longer term participation in local clubs and in the community.

We've had great success in Sunderland in not only designing activities that kids want to do but providing the opportunities for them to continue after the taster sessions.

Year 3 plans include:

• Aquatics
• Girls Football
• Boxing
• Cycling
• Basketball
• Rugby league
• Golf
• Cycling
• Cheerleading
• Cricket
• Club development

All of us at Active Sunderland are looking forward to working with new and existing partners to deliver year 3 activities starting with term 1 in April. We hope together we can make it the best year yet!
