Happy New Year from everyone here at Sportily!
We want to take a moment to express our appreciation for your support, and as we reflect on the past twelve months, we are filled with a profound sense of warmth and gratitude.
From a new high of 76 young people attending TRAC, our summer residential, to record-breaking numbers of children and young people at our afterschool clubs, from Korfball to Tchoukball, this year has been a blast.
As we head into 2024, we look forward to the promise of a new year filled with even more opportunities to make a positive difference. Your support has been the driving force behind every success, and we are excited to embark on this journey with you by our side.
With that said, take a look at some of the exciting offerings we have taking place over the coming months.
