Geelong YCMA is the perfect place for active kids to party, says the group’s Marija Privitelli.
The YMCA runs gymnastics and multi-sport parties at its Newtown, North Geelong and Bannockburn centres with options including basketball, football, soccer and cricket.
“We can fully cater the party to the child’s needs or interests,” Marija says.
“We can even focus on just the one sport if that is what the child prefers.
“They get to use equipment such as trampolines, the foam pit and beams, and have all sorts of fun.”
The parties include one hour of play with the YMCA’s qualified instructors and 30 minutes for food, cake and relaxing.
Parents can use all of the YMCA’s kitchen facilities and the centres provide cordial, tea and coffee.
The YMCA is even open to parents taking their kid’s birthday celebration to the next level.
“We had one parent who had someone come in and do face painting for the kids,” Marija says.
“We are happy for parents to get creative and we are happy to help make the party as personalised as possible.“
To find out what is possible just phone the YMCA on 5223 2714, she added.
The YMCA also offers sports for children of all ages throughout the year including judo, and trampolining.
“We just want to let the community know that we have something for everyone,” Marija says. “
“It doesn’t matter whether you’re into ball sports or hand stands, it’s the perfect place to get active and healthy.“
