You! Yes, you. No, not your parent! You, the child: someone under 18.
It's time to come out and have fun. Leave your phone at home and rather than experiencing the reality virtually, come and experience the game in real life!
When you come to us at Edusports, the activities are about you. Whether you're a teenager or younger, we'll adapt our activities to you, to help ensure you have the best time. Whilst you also come and experience the 'Actual Reality' , we'll also help to show and teach you some skills which you will use throughout your life, including: communication, teamwork, resilience, cooking and so much more!
Our activities are varied and change with you. The more we know about you, the more the activity can change and we can help take the activity in the direction that you would like it to go.
Eduscapes - Escape through Edusports.
It's time for you to have an adventure of a lifetime. You want to have fun, make the memories and be able to enjoy the different aspects. The difference though, is you get to choose your expedition, with your group, and how you want to do it. It may be walking or canoeing, powerboating or sailing. Or it might even be a mixture of all the above and more! Tell us what you want to do and we'll help you organise it!
However, it's time for you to have the fun and choose what you want to do! You might even choose to do a mixture of different activities. We offer 3 different levels:
- Beginner
- Advanced
- Elite
Each expedition level is slightly harder than the previous making it more of a challenge!
Adventure Xtreme
The club that's designed by you, for you!
We'll help you to boost your skills in communication, teamwork and bring out the inner adventurer within you. As we take on a variety of activities, both indoors and outdoors, you'll have fun and learn vital skills to later on in life.
Sign-up is by the term. Each term, the activities are changed and planned around what you would like to do.
Are you up to the challenges that will be presented to you?
Each activity is led by our qualified, Instructor team who'll be with you on each activity as we progress through the term.
Holiday Activities
For Children aged 8 and up. Our M.A.D. (multi-activity day) courses are exactly this; safe, enjoyable and fun! We even sneak in some educational based learning too, so they're learning about lots of different aspects whilst also getting to choose their different activities across the day. The best part, you get to be involved in the planning of the activity day.
Our activity days are so much more than just a standard activity day! Most children come away from our activity days wanting to come back for more! Better still, our holiday activities don't stay the same. Throughout the year, we give you a variety of different activities from days, to residentials to trips to a variety of places like London, the Space Centre in Leicester, museums and much more!
Paddle Squad
We've currently got 2 Squads.
Beginner Squad: This is usually for the younger members of our community, however, everyone will start in this Squad. It's about learning the basic skills across all craft and helping to teach you how to stay safe, but most importantly have fun! We also do a trip to Wales, where we introduce you to the Whitewater elements.
Advanced Squad: Once you've learnt the basic skills, it's time to progress those skills on and join our advanced squad.
Instructor Academy
Imagine this. You're sat on a boat in the sun, helping to teach children great activities. Sounds great, doesn't it?!
Instructor Academy: The place you learn how to be an Instructor. You'll get to access training, and ultimately the qualifications, where you would like to take your journey, along with getting experience under the guidance of our Instructor Team. You'll get access to a variety of different courses and other enhanced invite only opportunities, which won't be available to the general public!
Over 3 years of the programme, we'll help you to become confident and enable yourself to be an awesome Instructor. The aim at the end of the programme is that you then become a part of our Qualified Instructor Team.
To get in though, is not an easy process, you will first of all need to be in Year 9, complete an application form and pass an interview. For more information about Instructor Academy, please contact us. Applications normally open in September.
Edusports are the Open Award Centre for Bedfordshire. Whilst we've taken a small break from DofE Activities, we've still been supporting our participants through their sections and expeditions. We will be returning this to our programme next year, so keep your eyes peeled around April 2025 onwards. We're going to be re-launching with a new model of delivery, which will fit in with our current programme and are currently developing this.
