Key Info
Location & Times
The club is based at Oak View School, Whitehills Road, Loughton, Essex, IG10 1TS and takes place on Saturdays from 10am to 1pm, during term time.
Eligibility
Participants should preferably live or attend school within the Epping Forest district but we do accept new members from the surrounding districts and boroughs. They should ideally be aged between 5 – 19. Current participants of the club have a wide range of needs and are of varying ages, making it suitable for a great range of participants.
Coaching
Coaching is undertaken by specialist coaches, and participants are also provided with opportunities to attend competitions and events as part of the club.
The club currently has a qualified sports coach and two assistant coaches, as well as a number of volunteers. All staff and volunteers are DBS checked.
A leadership programme providing training in the Sports Leaders Level 1 Award also runs periodically depending on demand.

Fees
There is a small termly fee per member. It is currently £75 per term, £40 per half term or £9 a session if you prefer to pay weekly. Some terms are more than 10 weeks in length so it does work out cheaper to pay by the term. Either way, with the sessions being 3 hours in length this means we charge less per hour than most if not all clubs and it is great value! These fees have recently been raised by a small amount as we try to move the club to be more self-sustaining and less reliant on outside grants. We do review the fees periodically and they are liable to change. We will give good notice if we are going to make a change.
Our Sponsors
The club relies on grants to carry on. We have received grants from the Essex Community Fund and Loughton Town Council and are actively pursuing others. Bancroft's Prep School have been very generous with donations on a couple of occasions over the last few years as a result of their Charity Days. The club also receives great support from the Oak View School as we use their premises and that has been this way since we started back in 2005. Oak View School also support the committee in many other ways such as providing guidance and advice.
