Parent FAQs
The questions parents ask us most. Can't find your answer? Get in touch.
What should my child wear and bring?
Comfortable sports kit and trainers suitable for the surface — astro trainers rather than studs on artificial pitches. Tennis rackets and all other equipment are provided, though children are welcome to bring their own. Always bring a named water bottle, plus sun cream or a waterproof depending on the weather.
What happens if it rains?
Light rain rarely stops play. If a session has to be cancelled for weather we contact parents by email or text as early as possible, and a credit is issued for rained-off sessions. Where an indoor space is available we move inside instead.
What about lunch and snacks at holiday camps?
Children bring a packed lunch, snacks and plenty of drink for full-day camps. Water bottles can be refilled throughout the day. All our camps are strictly nut-free — please do not send any nut products.
Can my child bring a mobile phone?
Phones brought to camp are handed in at morning registration, stored securely and returned at collection, so children can enjoy the day screen-free.
How do drop-off and collection work?
Children are signed in and out by a member of staff. We only release children to a parent or an adult you have named to us. If someone different is collecting, let us know in advance by email or phone.
How are first aid and medication handled?
Every session has a first-aid trained member of staff. Tell us about any medical needs or allergies when booking. Children who need inhalers or EpiPens must bring them to every session, clearly labelled; staff will keep them to hand.
Are your coaches qualified and DBS checked?
Yes. All our coaches hold relevant national governing body qualifications and enhanced DBS checks, and follow our safeguarding policy.
Do you offer discounts?
Holiday camps booked for a full week receive a 10% discount, and children get a free Microsports T-shirt for every 5 camp days booked.
Can I try a session before booking a full term?
Yes — we run free taster sessions, including football tasters. Get in touch and we'll find a session to suit.
