Competitions

Throughout the academic year we host and support various sporting competitions for young people to enjoy and take part in, delivered by our team of professional, enthusicastic sports coaches.

These include The National League Trust Boys and Girls Cup - where primary schools have the opportunity to compete for the chance to represent Boston United at the Regional Finals and play at some of the top Premier League Club stadiums.

We also deliver various Premier League Primary Stars competitions, focusing on a variety of sports all aiming to engage and support the development of individuals - giving them opportunities to take part in competitions outside of school.

Festivals

Hosted by Boston United, these events help bring together primary school students from across the local area to participate in sport. The festivals are open to all primary school year groups and key stages, and designed to promote physical activity and healthy living among children.

The festival features a range of activities including football matches and drills and sports such as ultimate frisbee, tri-golf, dodgeball and many more. These festivals are designed to be inclusive and engaging, and all children within primary schools are encouraged to participate and have fun.

One of the key features of these festivals is the involvement of professional coaches and players from Boston United Youth Team. These experienced professionals provide guidance and support to the children, helping them to improve their skills and develop a passion for sports.

In addition to the sports activities, these festivals also feature educational workshops that cover topics such as health and well-being, teamwork and campaigns such as ‘No Room For Racism’ and ‘Rainbow Laces’.

The festivals are fun and engaging events that help children to develop their physical, social, and emotional skills. By providing a supportive and inclusive environment, these festival days help to encourage children to explore their interests, build friendships and hopefully develop a lifelong love of sports!

School Team Training & Tournament Provision

We can provide your school with a sports coach to run or help your school with an after school club or lunchtime club that is tailored as a Team Practice, providing additional practice to enhance a sports team performance or prepare for a tournament.

Our staff work with teachers to help improve areas of play that the team may struggle with and can be present for match days. As a scheme we can coach all different sports to be as diverse as possible for your school.

It can also be a sports academy session – for those children who already love sport, this session is an advanced level and a great way to develop their skills and sporting abilities for the gifted and talented.

We can also offer ‘in house’ tournaments between classes and year groups. These can take place at lunchtimes, before or after school or as a whole day festival (for example: skills in the morning, tournament in the afternoon). We can also provide the necessary planning, awards and officials for these events. Tournaments in schools can have a huge success to increase participation numbers in physical activity within primary schools, and helps us support schools with identifying talented students and setting individual plans for them to be challenged within their sports sessions throughout the week.
