The Go Kids All-Sports Program was created for kids who love to be active and enjoy playing sports/games with their peers. During class, participants will be on the move, competing in recreational classics like Capture the Flag, Four Square, as well as variations of basketball, soccer, etc. Children of all skill and fitness levels are invited to play. Go Kids strives to provide an atmosphere in which children of varying ages can come together and learn skills that will lead them to a lifetime of health, fitness and fun.

Go Kids Just for Kicks is a soccer-specific program designed for children ages 4-7. Campers will be challenged with developmentally appropriate activities focused on building a foundation of skills for the future. No experience is necessary! All players must wear shin guards, cleats/sneakers, bring a soccer ball water bottle and come ready to have fun! This is an excellent camp to introduce the young soccer player to the sport or to improve specific skills of the young soccer player.

Go Kids Lego School Break Camps were designed to keep brains moving in a different way than the traditional Go Kids programming. Each child will be given an individual challenge as well as small group challenges throughout the camp morning. They will sketch, build and present their finished work to their peers. No supplies are necessary; all Legos will be provided by Go Kids. Due to the structure of this class, all students must be able to build their Lego creations independently. Weather permitting, we will take a break to play outside.

Go Kids is the Capital Region’s only multi-sport and exercise program specifically designed for children aged 3-5. Go Kids’ sports and fitness activities teach preschoolers the fundamentals of 7 different sports in a social, team-based, non-competitive environment. Go Kids seeks to promote a healthy lifestyle, help develop a lifelong passion for physical activity, decrease childhood obesity, increase confidence and prepare children for participation in school and the broader community.
