Our clubs focus on one core activity each term, allowing children to build confidence, develop their skills and gain a deeper understanding through a carefully structured programme. Many of our programmes also lead to an optional end-of-term festival, where children can represent their school alongside clubs from across Gloucestershire.

This term, we’re bringing back one of our most-loved activities: DodgeBall — with a festive SnowBall Fight twist! 💥❄️

🎯 Fast. Fun. Tactical. Purposeful.

DodgeBall challenges children to do much more than throw and dodge. Players must think on their feet, communicate with teammates and decide when to attack, when to defend and how to support each other.

Throughout the term, children will develop their skills through exciting coaching activities, team challenges and mini-matches, putting what they learn into action every week.

❄️ A festive twist!

As December approaches, our DodgeBall sessions become SnowBall Fights! We play the same great game using small, soft, fluffy indoor snowballs, bringing plenty of winter excitement to the school hall.

Children continue building their skills and tactics while preparing for the chance to represent their school at our end-of-term SnowBall Fight Festival!

🎯 What children will develop

Throughout the term, children will follow a progressive programme covering:

🎯 Throwing accuracy and control
🙌 Catching skills
⚡ Dodging, agility and quick reactions
👀 Positioning and spatial awareness
🛡️ Attacking and defending tactics
🧠 Decision-making and tactical thinking
🤝 Communication and teamwork
💪 Confidence and resilience

Every session combines structured coaching activities with exciting matches, giving children regular opportunities to practise their skills in realistic game situations.

Sessions are inclusive and suitable for children of all abilities — from those trying DodgeBall for the first time to experienced players ready for a new challenge.

👧🧒 Who can attend?

DodgeBall & SnowBall Fight Club is available to children across all school year groups, subject to the age groups agreed with each individual school. Please check the specific booking information for your child’s club.
