Sport Specific Activator Workshops
Activator Workshops provide an informal introduction to a new sport or activity and enable participants to facilitate activities within a community setting.
These workshops enable learners to lead modified versions of the sport or activity in a variety of settings, and with minimal equipment. There is a focus on fun and adaptation, rather than technical ability. Drawing on the principles of teaching games for understanding, they provide numerous activities to enable interaction with young people and understand their motivations.
Developed in partnership with National Governing Bodies of Sport (NGBs) these workshops:
- Support young volunteers’ journey into sports leadership & coaching
- Provide new games & challenges to keep experienced youth, sport & community workers’ offer fresh
- Prepare Further & Higher Education students for work in community settings
Go Further, Go Higher in action
StreetGames were delighted to support BUCS with the delivery of our Football Workshop, which formed part of their Football Activators Day. Around 70 young people attended sessions in Leeds and Reading with the aim of learning new skills to deliver sessions both at their university and in their local community.
Testimonials
Our work with StreetGames this year has had an extremely positive impact on our learners' employability, the sessions are highly practical and develop delivery skills in a wide range of sports. It has been brilliant to see young coaches work with a range of tutors who have shared their extensive knowledge and expertise, the sessions have built on the coaching unit within the Level 3 Sport Coaching and Development qualification which has enhanced their wider personal and career development.”
Warren Aplin, Curriculum Area Manager (Sport, Protective Services, Travel & Tourism), Yeovil College
StreetGames have delivered a range of qualifications designed to meet the needs of our students and complement their course of study. Their courses have a focus on inclusion and physical and mental wellbeing. Our students gain knowledge of safe, ethical coaching and improve their communication and effective working relationships with participants and others. StreetGames enable students at Barnsley College to adapt their coaching to meet the needs, abilities, and stages of development in a fun, funky and fresh learning environment. A pleasure to work with – accommodating and adaptable.”
Amanda Sowerby, Physical Activity & Sport Coordinator, Barnsley College
The Multi Skills Activator course was extremely impactful for our students! The course was fun, engaging and very supportive. It was perfect for our students as it directly linked in with their modules, and it was great to see students using the skills/knowledge they gained during the course to complete practical assessments. Will definitely book again next year for future students!”
Keshia Hilton, FDSC Physical Education and Sports Coaching Programme Leader, Newcastle College
Our apprentices have received fantastic training from StreetGames on an annual basis. Each group's needs are taken into consideration while designing the workshops, and participants have consistently provided positive feedback. The leads have always been encouraging and offer first-rate service, allowing the students to demonstrate the knowledge and skills they have acquired and use them in the workplace. For the past five years, we have worked directly with StreetGames and will do so moving forward.
Sunny Chavda, Sport Work Related Learning Coordinator & School Sport Coach, Loughborough College
The StreetGames Multi-Skills Course was absolutely brilliant! The staff delivering the course were engaging, knowledgeable, and exceptionally organised. Our students loved it—feedback included, ‘It was so much fun,’ ‘We learned so much in such a short time,’ ‘We were active the whole time,’ and ‘It was great to learn in a practical way and gain a recognised qualification.’ A fantastic experience all around!”
Jenna Dunsford, Hereford Sixth Form College
StreetGames Activator Essentials training has been a huge hit at University of Warwick with our Student Activators this academic year. The training sessions are always engaging and the students have gained insightful knowledge to help them in their roles. The process of using StreetGames as the training provider is simple and the team are really helpful from start of bookings right through to delivery of the sessions.”
