Our Mission

Our mission is to make sports and childcare fun, exciting, and inclusive for all young children.

Fun-Focused Approach

At Xtra Time, we believe sports should always be fun and enjoyable! Our activities are carefully crafted to keep children engaged, excited, and motivated. By incorporating interactive games, creative challenges, and a positive, encouraging atmosphere, we ensure every child not only enjoys staying active but also develops essential skills in the process.

Inclusive for All

At Xtra Time, we welcome children of all backgrounds and abilities, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate, learn, and grow. Whether your child is a beginner or more experienced, our programs are designed to be supportive and adaptable to different skill levels. We focus on fostering teamwork, friendship, and mutual respect, creating an inclusive environment where every child feels valued and encouraged to thrive.

Safe & Supportive Environment

At Xtra Time, we create a welcoming and nurturing environment where children feel safe to explore, learn, and take on new challenges. Our trained staff prioritise safety while inspiring children to push their boundaries, develop resilience, and celebrate their progress along the way. We focus on building confidence, ensuring that every child feels supported as they grow and achieve new milestones.

Our Story of Establishment

Xtra Time is a family-run business established in 2003. We began as a football coaching service, '1st Touch Football Coaching', and expanded into children's care in 2012 with 'Xtra Time Kidz Club'. As we continued to grow, we recognised the need to combine both services under one umbrella. In May 2017, we officially became 'Xtra Time Kidz Club and Sports Coaching', bringing together our passion for sport and childcare to provide a comprehensive service for children in our community.

We are
growing

We have gone from strength to strength since our humble beginnings and now proudly supervise over 1500 children across 30 schools, 3 childcare provisions, and various sports clubs. Our growth reflects our commitment to providing high-quality, engaging, and supportive services for children, ensuring they have the opportunity to develop, learn, and have fun in a safe environment.
