The WSAFC Wanderers are a football team for super heroes with Down Syndrome aged 5-12 years.  They have been running for over 2 years and are coordinated by our Back To Your Feet Physiotherapy team - benefitting from a physiotherapist coach at every training.  The focus is on connection, fitness, skill development - and of course scoring goals!  

Sessions are well structured, providing routine and predictability for players.  Additional volunteers provide support and encouragement and eager siblings are also welcome.  Parents this is a great chance to meet other families and a rare opportunity to relax on the sidelines.

When are the sessions

Sessions run for 10 weeks during Term 4 and are on Thursdays from 4:30-5:15pm.  The first sessions is 9th October and final session is 11th December.

Where are the sessions?

They take place on the artificial turf (covered) at Pt Chev School.  The first session will be Thursday 9th October but you can start at any point during the term.
