The camp caters to kids between the ages of 7-14 years old and will run from the April 4th to 8th.
It is geared towards teaching children motor skills that will help them to learn proper coordination, jumping, kicking, hitting, running skills and other sport fundamentals. The Sport and Youth Minister, experienced first hand what was being taught at the camp by participating in a motor skills session with the kids.
Minister Smith stated that “the Easter Camp will allow kids to have options in the future to get involved in a sport of their choice by exposing them at an early stage to these fundamental skills. By getting involved they will be better equipped to hone their skills in their respective sporting disciplines.”
The Honourable Darryl Smith, reiterated that his goal is to utilise and refurbish existing sporting facilities such as the Jean Pierre Complex, notwithstanding future plans for other sporting facilities across the country. In keeping with technological advancements, Minister Smith hopes to implement a software maintenance programme that will allow for the tracking of upgrades and needs assessments at facilities.
