The soccer stars clubs are great fun, my little boys attended for the first time last summer and they can’t wait for this summer.
Some really good holiday clubs there, my children would love some of these.
Some great stuff to do, brill
Unfortunately my son is still a little young for clubs and camps but there seems to be a lot of different interesting ones out there
There are also loads of residential courses – where adults and children can do different things. Check out Marlborough Summer Schools.
Great idea if you can get your kids to go, mine didn’t like to.
My goodness, what a diversity of summer courses available, Sport is so important in life
