Ready Steady Go Kids
Why Multi-Sports?
Have you ever seen children who
can’t catch, throw or hit because all
they have concentrated on is kicking
sports?
Or children who can’t kick because
all they have done is hitting sports?
This is where Multi Sports becomes
a fantastic activity for your child.
Multi sports enables your child’s
body to learn to use every muscle
in their body and to use them for a
specific purpose. This initiates muscle
memory and brain stimulation.
In multi sports they learn to kick,
throw, catch, run, pass, bounce,
shoot, hit and jump. They also learn
lots of other skills like balancing,
coordination, cognitive thinking,
sharing and turn taking.
Multi sporting or sports
diversification is all about your child not
specializing in a particular sport at a young
age, it is thought of as playing as many
sports as often as possible. This exposes
children to a multitude of sports with a
focus on playing and learning instead of
practicing, and provides an environment
that may nurture a genuine love for a sport
so that productive, structured practice may
follow when they are older.
Here is where Ready Steady Go Kids
comes in. We are the largest multi sports
program in Australia and we have won
multiple awards for our fantastic sports
program for pre-schoolers.
With children learning the basics of 10
different sports over 2 terms, they are
experiencing some sports that they may
never have tried. With classes that now
start from 1.5 years to 6 years of age in age
appropriate classes, your child will love it.
They are fun and interactive and with each
child having their own equipment, we don’t
sit or stop for long.
I would like to introduce myself
to you all. My name is Vanessa
Broadley and I am the Central Coast
owner of Ready Steady Go kids. I
have been running classes on the
Central Coast now for 6 years and
we now have classes at 4 locations:
Erina, Charmhaven, Terrigal and
Woy Woy. We have grown
significantly in the last 2 years with
our GET READY (1.5-2.5 years
program) being introduced, and I
see our program as a leading
activity on the coast. Our children
love coming to our classes because
they get to try different things each
week. We change it up so they are
doing a different sport every 2
weeks, and lots of different skills,
Plus we have awesome instructors
running our classes.
Our youngsters don’t see it as sport,
they see it as a chance to explore. Parents
see it as a way to expend energy, try new
things and stimulate their minds while
learning life skills.
If you are looking for such an activity,
we offer FREE TRIALS at all our venues,
but you best be quick to book your spot as
classes fill fast.
