We had an incredible day at Cokethorpe School witnessing the incredible energy and enthusiasm of their young people, who are thriving in sports and PE. It was truly inspiring to see their dedication and passion for physical activity. A big thank you to all the staff and students at Cokethorpe for their warm welcome, positivity and support. Their commitment to creating a nurturing and encouraging environment filled with opportunities for their students is evident in every aspect of the school. Looking forward to more collaborations in the future!

We couldn’t resist getting our 'Sports Directory Minis' involved in Sports Star Friday! At Sports Directory, we want a healthier, happier future for young people. That's why we're proud to support the Youth Sport Trust mission to encourage 60 minutes of PE, sport, and play each day. See how our young ones achieve this goal and have a great time doing it! Visit the Youth Sport Trust Just Giving page to show your support and help inspire the next generation of champions. https://lnkd.in/ebr7nXi6 #YSTSportsStarFriday #NSSW2024 #NSSW #PE #PhysicalEducation #Sport

This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week theme is 'Moving more for our mental health'. Our bodies and minds are connected, and that's why we believe PE is pivotal in nurturing the mental health of young people. Mental health is important to all of us, so we’ve been making moments for movement in the Sports Directory office by going on walks 🚶🚶♀️ A big thank you to the Mental Health Foundation for providing invaluable resources and tips, enabling us to actively participate this week.

We recently had the delight of visiting Danesfield Church of England Middle School, the proud winners of a competition we ran in partnership with Canterbury. This competition granted them an exclusive visit from Jodie Ounsley, also known as Fury the Gladiator! Jodie, the first-ever deaf female rugby player to have appeared for a senior England side, joined us for an unforgettable day. She kicked off with a coaching session for Year 7 and 8 pupils, where half of the students wore ear defenders to gain an empathetic understanding of playing sports with a hearing impairment. Later, she led an assembly and engaging Q&A session with some Year 5 students, who could hardly contain their excitement at meeting a real-life gladiator! They even got to practice her signature pose with her. Jodie's visit reaffirmed the transformative power of sports and the importance of representation. She reminded us all that barriers are meant to be broken, and with determination, the possibilities are endless.

Sports Directory are proudly supporting The Bobby Moore Fund and Cancer Research UK (CRUK) on Football Shirt Friday. Bowel cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in the UK. With 46 lives lost daily, that's more than four football teams. That’s why we are proud to show off our shirts today and raise some money for a great cause. Now to tackle the ultimate question, which shirt is your favourite!? 🏆⚽️ #FootballShirtFriday #BobbyMooreFund #CancerResearchUK #SportsDirectory
