Dragon Sport 
Dragon Sport in Neath Port Talbot
Dragon Sport is designed to
offer 7-11 year olds fun and appropriate sporting
opportunities. There are 8 Dragon Sports – Athletics, Golf,
Cricket, Tennis, Hockey, Netball, Rugby and Football.
In Neath Port Talbot, we
work very closely with primary schools to support extra-curricular
sports clubs.
Every primary school in
Neath Port Talbot run Dragon Sport clubs. Contact your
school to find out what times they run their clubs.
Dragon Sport is also
available in some community sports clubs and leisure centres.
For more information of community Dragon Sport, please contact us.
We provide training and
support to parents, teachers and volunteers who lead or help at
Dragon Sport clubs.
Dragon Sport clubs promote
fair play and are open to children of all abilities.
If you would like to be a
Dragon Sport volunteer and help out at a Dragon Sport club, please
contact Claire Sims on 01639 860121 or email: c.sims@npt.gov.uk
