  2. In year one, we retained 684 young people in the South Beds area, achieving 106% of our yearly target over 56 activities. Some of our most successful activities were Table Tennis, Rock It Ball, Dodgeball & Cycling – all of which were delivered within school settings and supported by the SSCos on site. Sport Unlimited

  3. The start of year two has seen many challenges. With 33 activities running in the summer term we managed to retain 361 young people and achieved 98% of our target. Low numbers in various activities including archery, aerobics and cheerleading negatively impacted on our desired outcome. Sport Unlimited
