In-School Programmes

We also run Kelly Sport in-school programmes, click on the links below to check out what we have to offer:

The in-school currciclum programmes Kelly Sports run have been hugely successful.  The Fundamental Skills programme teaches children the basics of kicking, throwing, catching, striking, running and jumping in a fun and structured environment.  Teacher and student self-assessment sheets are available for this programme.  These can be included in children’s work or report folders.

The Keep Fit programme is a fantastic fun.  The whole school aims to improve their fitness over a term through fitness testing and a variety of relay type activities.  Children are assessed at the beginning, the middle and the end of the term by Kelly Sports Coaches.  We then provide the teachers with fun relay activities to help improve their fitness throughout the term.  This is great programme for children aged from Year 3 or 4 through to Year 8 with the whole school encouraging each other to improve their results by the end of the term.

For further information on any of the above please contact Adam Fleming at any time on adam@kellysports.co.nz or 03 322 9294.

Adam Fleming, Manager
Christchurch Central Zone

After completing a degree in sports coaching at the end of 2008, Adam has been working as manager of Kelly Sports Christchurch.  “I have always enjoyed coaching and the challenges that come with it so when the opportunity came up to do something that I love, I couldn’t wait to get involved”.

Adam credits his passion for sports to his former coaches who inspired him to give sports a go.  He admits that he wasn’t always the best, but believes that their encouragement greatly improved his confidence and desire to learn more about the sports that he played.  Although not playing as many sports as he used to, he still plays soccer competitively and enjoys playing tennis and golf with his friends.

Over the past few years he has come to appreciate the role that sport play in the lives of young children.  “If a child enjoys what they are doing they are more likely to stick at it so what’s the point in doing repetitive drills when games can help to achieve the same thing.  Some coaches may argue that this is to develop skills, but if a child has the choice between playing a game of soccer and doing drills, what are they going to choose?”

This largely game-based approach was developed through his time at teachers’ college where he was constantly encouraged to create a fun and stimulating environment, an aspect that he strives to implement in all of his Kelly Sports sessions.

For more information about any of his programmes, please phone Adam on 021 02558263 or email adam@kellysports.co.nz
