Children love to play, so we aim to nurture their natural curiosity through our fun activities and skill building games. We believe early intervention in a structured sports program will benefit all participants for life. The smaller class sizes are tailored to support each child’s ability and ensure they learn lots of fun new skills in a safe and controlled environment.

This program is tailored specifically for children with special needs, although siblings are welcome to register in the same class. Our staff are first aid trained and have experience working with special needs children. Parents are required to assist with their child throughout the duration of each class.

We also include an educational component to develop each child’s understanding of shapes, colours, numbers and the alphabet through participation in our fun skills and games.

For some fun on your child’s birthday, enquire about a Sports Party tailored for children with Special Needs.

I just wanted to thank you for coaching Hunter this year. The Kinder Sports program is excellent and you are such a fantastic and positive role model for the kids. I know Hunter will miss you and LL next year when he starts big school.

We will see you for the multi-sport camp in December and hopefully again in January.

My son started doing Kinder Sports when he was 2 1/2.  I had always taken my older daughters to dance classes when they were preschoolers so I wanted to do something special with him that I thought he would be interested in.  Another Preschool mum highly recommended Little Legends because she said that the fellow who ran it was a young enthusiastic first grade Gordon rugby player and her son really responded well to him.  My son has done 2 1/2 years in the program (including attending multi sports and rugby camps) and I can honestly say Terry has been one of the most positive influences on my son’s life. Terry has boundless patience and has taught my son how to play rugby, tennis, basketball, soccer etc etc but more importantly he has taught him the importance of sharing and good sportsmanship through play. I have no doubt that my son will be well equipped to handle playground life when he starts primary school given all the skills he has learnt through Little Legends. I can highly recommend Little Legends as a multi sports skills program not only because it offers very personalised attention to each individual child but because it is predominantly fun.
