The programme will include aikido, aerobics, athletics, badminton, basketball, cycling, football, gymnastics, hip-hop dancing, handball, judo, netball, pilates, rugby, self-defence, snooker and volleyball.

Training will usually be held once a week at various venues. All coaches working in the ‘Girls on the Move’ programme are qualified in their respective sports.
