What sets Play Project apart from other recreation providers?

  • Clear program goals and values. We have clear measures of what makes a successful recreation program. The measures that we use, in order of priority, are:
    • Safety
    • Engagement (via fun/challenge)
    • Skill Development/Knowledge
  • A systemized approach to recreation. Our lesson plans and curriculums are pre-planned and scheduled out months in advance. Although coaches have the agency to modify programming in class, based on the needs of students, pre-planning our programming ensures that students are always learning new skills and being engaged at all times.

  • We hire coaches first and athletes second. Coaching is a separate skill than being a parkour athlete and a good athlete does not guarantee that someone will be a good coach.  We would rather hire a coach that will be able to fulfill the needs of a class, but is not as strong of an athlete,  versus a world class level athlete who cannot engage our students.

  • There’s no such thing as a “bad child”. Many recreation providers are quick to place full responsibility upon a child for their behaviour, without reflecting on how their programming can be modified to prevent undesired behaviour. Our staff are trained to take advantage of these opportunities to learn, reflect, and make our programs better.

  • The key to quality is in the details. Play Project caters to students by focusing on the little things that other recreation providers miss. We take pride in valuing details such as decreasing down time between activities, class layout choices that reduce other distractions, using of the correct order of operations for introducing skills, and allowing students an opportunity for mastery through games and challenges.
