Extra-Curricular
motive8 extra-curricular provision offers children a range of sports and activities. These are delivered as extra-curricular clubs, tournaments, (charity) events and inter-school competitions/matches.
Our extra-curricular schools clubs cater for a range of ages and abilites and are run as breakfast, lunch or after-school clubs. Our specialist coaches adapt sessions to suit every child's development needs and also link into motive8 and borough tournaments so as to give the children an end goal and focus.
Available clubs include:
Arts
- Gymnastics
- Cheerleading
- Street Dance
Invasion Games
- Netball/Handball/Basketball
- Tag Rugby
- Football
- Hockey
Other activities
- Tennis
- Athletics
- Skipping
- Multi-sports
We also have a dedicated Schools Competitions Manager, who aims to keep the competitive edge of sport alive. Our intra and inter-school competitions function as a great way to introduce children to the world of competitive sport, enabling them to soclialise with other schools as well as bond themselves within a team.
Another aspect of our provision is to promote physical activity and sport through events, many of which are run in aid of charity. Events such as running the Sport Relief mile and the Jump Rope for Heart skipping challenge helps to link sport with the wider community as well as bringing out the positive aspects and benefits of what can be achieved through taking part in physical activity.
The overall objective of this provision is to get children involved in regular physical activity as well as improving their sporting skills and ability. All sessions are based around having fun at the same time as learning and enhancing skills. By offering a range of activities and a 1:15 coach to child ratio, we can cater for all children – talented pupils can further develop their sporting skills whilst those who may be less confident in their ability can receive targeted training from our coaches to help them become more involved.
Project case studies

motive8 Gymnastics & Trampoline Squad
With ten successful gymnastics clubs already running, four of which have waiting lists, and some real talent shining through, we decided it was time to develop a gymnastics squad. The concept being, a club outside of school hours that we could invite talented children along to trial for a place.
