STEP Into Sport has been hailed as a resounding success.

A fun-packed schedule of half-term sports hosted by Tadcaster Grammar School included swimming, dodge ball, basketball, football, dance fitness and rugby league with Castleford Tigers coaches.

Keith Aspden, family of schools co-ordinator for Tadcaster and Sherburn, said children embraced the opportunity to get involved and were looking forward to the next schedule of events.

“Across the Tadcaster and Sherburn schools, we were really pleased to offer popular holiday activities for children and young people during February half-term,” said Aspden.

"For the Step Into Sport, we introduced new t-shirts with a different colour for each school holiday."

The next Step Into Sport series hosted by Tadcaster Grammar will take place during the Easter holidays on April 1 and 2 and April 8 to 10, between 10am and 3pm.

Open to boys and girls aged seven years and over, the two schemes will offer football, dodge ball and a visit to Tadcaster Swimming Pool, with each participant receiving a free Step Into Sport t-shirt.

The cost will be £24 for two days and £36 for three days. Places can be reserved by phoning 01937 837614.
