Break Dancing, Free Running And Cheerleading!

Young Londoners will benefit from new after-school clubs and disability events as part of the forthcoming 2012Olympics.

The sporting programme will see the opening of 56 after-school clubs across the capital along with the launch of 25 disability-led events – with a particular focus on those who do not have enough access to sport. Activities will include martial arts, break dancing, free running and cheerleading as well as more traditional sports.

Teachers, support staff and some pupils will be trained in sports coaching to help run the after-school clubs, while the funding will also pay for equipment. The clubs and activities are being coordinated by the Youth Sport Trust.
