Age groups

The Kindy group and the Year 6 group are not doing the same session.

Most providers run one session and hope it lands. We split by age band and change the content, the equipment, the block length and the competitive intensity for each. It's the difference between a five year old standing in a queue and a five year old playing.

Kindergarten – Year 2

Play and movement

Fundamental movement skills through games, not drills. Nobody is standing still.

  • Larger targets and goals
  • Softer, lighter, smaller equipment
  • Short blocks, frequent changes
  • Everyone has a ball, no queuing
  • Cooperative before competitive
Years 3 – 4

Skills and small-sided games

Real technique introduced through modified games, with first proper competition.

  • Technical stations at three levels
  • 3v3 and 4v4 formats
  • Teams chosen by the coach, never by children
  • Rules and fair play discussed, not imposed
  • Round robin with rotating teams
Years 5 – 6

Technique, tactics and leadership

Genuine coaching at a level that holds the attention of children who already play club sport.

  • Progression-based technical work
  • Positioning, tactics and game understanding
  • Full-format games and finals
  • Captaincy and refereeing roles
  • Non-competitive option always available

Wide age spread on the day?

That's the normal case in vacation care, not the exception. On a half-day booking we can run your age groups as separate back-to-back sessions, so each band gets content pitched exactly at them. On shorter bookings we run one group with adaptations built into every activity — bigger targets, closer lines and extra turns for the younger ones. Either way, no child is doing something too easy or too hard.

Why us

Most providers send a coach. We send a teacher.

Your real concern isn't whether someone knows football. It's whether thirty mixed-age children will be safe, engaged and well managed for the next two hours.

01

A practising sport teacher

Every sport we run is one we teach professionally to this exact age group, every week of the school year, differentiated by ability and to a curriculum.

02

Coaching at professional club level

Football is coached to the standard it's coached at professional A-League clubs, adapted for primary-aged children.

03

Age-banded, not one-size-fits-all

Three separate programs across K–2, Years 3–4 and Years 5–6. Different content, equipment, block length and intensity for each.

04

Built to your centre

Sport, structure, group size and activity design are set by you. We write the session to the children you have, the numbers on the day and the space you can give us.

05

No transport, no ratio impact

We come to you. No bus hire, no excursion fee to families, no travel supervision, and we don't count toward your educator to child ratios.

06

Paperwork sent, not chased

Insurance certificate, WWCC verification, risk assessment, session plan and child safe policy arrive on booking. You won't have to ask twice.

Programs

Fourteen sports. You choose the mix.

A full-size field is not required

Sessions are designed to the space you have, not the other way around. We run on a basketball court, a COLA, an indoor hall, a hard court or a small patch of grass. Tell us what you've got and the session is written to it.

How booking works

Four steps. No account, no portal, no 1300 number.

You get in touch

Call or send the form. Tell us your centre, dates, numbers and the space you have.

We scope it

Five quick questions about your group, then a written quote with the recommended package.

You confirm

A $100 deposit holds the date. Compliance pack and session plan arrive straight away.

We deliver

We arrive early, set up, run it, pack down. Invoice on the day, 14 day terms.

First session guarantee

Booking an unknown provider is a risk you're taking with your own reputation. So on your first booking with us: if the session isn't what we promised, tell us on the day and you don't pay for it. No invoice, no argument. We'd rather earn the second booking than hold you to the first.

Testimonial 1Ask for this in writing after your first booking. Every booking, every time.
Testimonial 2Name, role and service name. A quote without a name converts far worse.
Testimonial 3Delete this whole section until you have at least two. An empty section is worse than none.

About

Who's actually turning up

I'm [FULL NAME]. I teach primary school sport for a living, and I coach football at professional A-League club level.

Why I started this. [Write two or three honest sentences here. What did you notice in holiday programs that made you want to fix it? Kids doing screen time and excursions instead of playing? Coaches who couldn't manage a group? Your own kids? Say the real reason, in your own words. This paragraph does more work than every credential below it.]

That combination is the whole point. Teaching sport to five to twelve year olds every week of the school year means the session is planned, differentiated and managed properly. Coaching at professional club level means the football is the real thing, not a kick-around with cones.

Fun Sports Factory is a supplier to approved services, not a childcare provider. Your educators keep supervision and duty of care throughout, and we don't count toward your ratios. We handle the program. You keep running your service.

FAQ

The questions coordinators actually ask

Do you count toward our educator to child ratios?

No. We are an external activity provider, not an educator at your service. Your own staffing arrangements are unaffected and must be maintained independently. Your educators keep supervision and duty of care throughout the session. This is stated in writing in our terms so there is no ambiguity for your assessment file.

What if our numbers change on the day?

Not a problem. Give us final numbers 48 hours out and we'll write the session to them. If more children turn up than expected we'll adapt on the spot. Children over the stated cap are charged at the standard rate, and we'll always tell you before we invoice rather than surprise you.

What happens if it rains?

Every program has an indoor variant. If you have any indoor space, the session runs in modified form at no change to price. If you don't, we reschedule at no charge or carry your deposit forward to a future date, whichever you prefer. You are never charged for weather.

What space do you need?

A basketball court sized area is enough, indoor or outdoor. A full-size field is not required and not expected. We've run on COLAs, halls, hard courts and small grassed areas. We ask about your space at booking and write the session to it, so activity selection changes rather than the session being squeezed into a space it doesn't fit.

What documentation do we get?

On booking confirmation, without you asking: certificate of currency for $20 million public liability, WWCC number and verification instructions, HLTAID012 first aid certificate, coaching accreditation, Child Safe Environments Policy, code of conduct, a risk assessment written to your venue, a session plan written to your group, and outcomes mapped against My Time, Our Place for your programming records.

How far ahead should we book?

Six to eight weeks before the holiday period, before you publish your program to families. We deliver on roughly 50 days a year and popular dates in each period go first. If you're planning next holidays now, get the date held.

Can you do more than one of our centres?

Yes. If you run several services we can schedule across them within a holiday period, and a 10% discount applies where you book three or more services. Same-day delivery at two centres is possible for shorter sessions depending on distance.

Can children with additional needs take part?

Yes, and inclusion is designed in rather than added on. Every activity has an adapted version. Tell us at booking about any child with a medical, mobility, sensory, communication, cultural or behavioural requirement and the session plan is written around it. Where a child has a one-to-one support educator we work with them, not around them.

What are your payment terms?

A $100 deposit confirms the booking. The balance is invoiced on the day of delivery and payable within 14 days. Full deposit refund with more than 14 days notice of cancellation.
