Collaborations that benefit our young sporting communities

We work in partnership with a wide range of highly expert and experienced organisations to enhance the fun, enjoyment and overall benefit children and young people gain from their sporting and physical education activities. These include:

Elite Rugby opens doors to the best international facilities, combining sports development with enriching cultural experiences. Expert coaching builds technical skill whilst structured support promotes confidence, independence and creativity.

Elite offer both day camps and residential camps as well as international tours and invitational squads, all run by Elite coaching staff, alongside current and former international rugby stars and led by our Brand Ambassador Ugo Monye.

Elite Football is an independent, high-performance training academy that allows young footballers to realise and maximise their potential, with the opportunity through our development, pathways and partnerships to perhaps gain a professional football club contract one day. We bridge the gap between grass-roots and professional club academy football.

Ours is a holistic, continental approach that includes top-class training from UEFA and FA qualified coaches, individual assessments from our physiotherapists, highly qualified sports science experts, as well as top sports psychologists. We also utilise match-analysis technology for our teams and players. At the end of each season we proudly represent England in the world's youth football tournament, The Gothia Youth World Cup, held in Sweden.

With only 21% of boys and 16% of girls meeting the minimum recommended guidelines for physical activity we're proud to support Change4Life, the public health programme in England run by the Department of Health. It's the country's first national social marketing campaign to tackle the causes of obesity.

We're local supporters of Change4Life, which aims to help families, from children to adults, make small, sustainable yet significant improvements to their diet, activity levels and alcohol consumption.

Using the slogan 'Eat well, move more, live longer' the campaign focuses on six healthy behaviours including 5-a-day, watching salt intake, cutting back the fat, sugar swapping, choosing less booze and – the part we love – getting going every day!
