Ymca Sports Parties

We run tailor made sports parties to make it the perfect day to remember.

Our sports parties can be run on Saturdays or Sundays during the term time or any day during the school holidays.

Parties can be based on any of the following:

Football / Trampolining / Basketball / Cricket / Tennis / Tag Rugby / Multi-Sports/ Toddlers Gym

All Parties Include:

  1. Qualified coach - To ensure safety and fun at all time
  2. Hall hire - So you don't have to worry about the weather
  3. Games, learn a skill and a match at the end

Hire of the canteen area for food and drink is an optional extra but the perfect way to finish the party. The coach will stay and help organize it all you need to do is provide the food, drink and party cake. 

 

COSTS:

We offer a range of options tailored to suit your individual needs. Please contact Marmion road reception on 01273 715439 or email tanya.arie@sussexcentralymca.org.uk.

 

Please note trampoline & toddlers gym parties have an additional cost due to the equipment needed and a specialised coach. But trampolining parties will also include a free play area for children waiting for their turns.

All coaches are CRB checked, receive regular party training and are fully insured
