Fitness through play and impromptu games
An affordable and attractive alternative to formal sport in schools
January 2006
Doing Sport Differently is an exciting brochure published exclusively for the education market by Wicksteed Leisure.  It offers a range of systems and ideas that give children more scope for healthy activity whilst helping schools and local authorities get better value for money.

Government recommendations are demanding, yet the obstacles to providing sufficient sport and physical activity in schools are many.  Formal sports can be difficult to accommodate and these days it's a form of exercise that may be less attractive to some youngsters.  Budgets are often limited and lack of space can be a problem.  Wicksteed's brochure includes a variety of alternative approaches.

The permanent installation of the colourful multi-module Fantasy Funrun fitness adventure trail system can be used informally or as part of a lesson.  Wicksteed helps customers design the perfect trail for each age group and range of ability.

Allrounda multi-sport playground system can transform a small asphalt area or unused ground into a sports arena for football, tennis, basketball, netball, hockey, cricket, 'high fives" and tag rugby - one multi-use area for a fraction of the cost of individual courts and pitches.

Wildcats Premier system for Multi-Use Games Areas is completely modular and very robust.  And there's something to meet everyone's budget, from practice modules and goals to a complete MUGA with a range of accessories.

For a more modest outlay, Wicksteed offer Basketball, Five-a-side & Combination Goals for permanent fixing, Portable Basketball Goals and the Topspin All-weather Table Tennis Table.

Find out how you can maximise space, obtain better value for money, reduce maintenance budgets and encourage your youngsters to raise their standard of fitness.
