Fit Futures: Inspiring Healthy Habits Through Tag Rugby
Empowering Year 5 Pupils to Make Positive Choices
Fit Futures is an exciting new tag rugby programme designed to promote healthy lifestyles and physical activity among Ealing’s Year 5 pupils. By engaging students at this crucial age, the programme helps build positive habits and encourages lifelong enthusiasm for staying active, fostering healthier futures for our children.
With Ealing’s primary schools facing some of the highest childhood obesity rates in the country (Ealing Council, CYP JSNA), Fit Futures focuses on early intervention in areas like Southall, Greenford, Northolt, and Acton. These sessions offer not only a chance to get moving but also an opportunity for children to develop teamwork, confidence, and resilience in a fun, supportive environment.
How the Programme Works
Fit Futures is delivered completely free of charge to six primary schools across Ealing. Each school will benefit from:
- 5 weeks of engaging tag rugby coaching for Year 5 pupils in two classes of up to 30 children.
- Interactive assemblies designed to inspire children to stay active and connect them to Ealing Trailfinders’ values and legacy.
- A tag rugby festival to celebrate the skills they’ve learned and enjoy friendly competition with other schools.
- A match day experience at an Ealing Trailfinders game, where students will play on the pitch during halftime—a memory to cherish and a chance to experience the joy of sport.
Through this fun and inclusive programme, Fit Futures empowers children to make positive choices for their health, builds their confidence, and sets them on a path toward a more active and fulfilling future.
