About Up & Under Sports

Up & Under Sports was established in January 2010 by Geraint and Jenny Lewis, built on a shared passion for sport and a drive to inspire the next generation. With over 20 years of combined experience in Physical Education, Geraint (former Head of Department) and Jenny (Deputy Head at a specialist Sports College) bring expert knowledge and infectious enthusiasm to everything they do.

Their time in Perth, Western Australia, was a turning point—shaping the innovative coaching methods and fresh ideas that continue to define Up & Under Sports today.

Since returning to the UK, they have grown Up & Under Sports into a thriving organisation, giving children of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds the chance to discover new sports, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love of being active.

Now operating across Bath, Bristol, Wiltshire, and Gloucestershire, their dedicated coaching team delivers high-quality sessions to primary, secondary and special schools—making a real difference in schools and communities every day.

The Up & Under Sports Team

The Up & Under Sports team is made up of highly qualified and experienced coaches, each holding either a Physical Education teaching degree or a minimum of a Level 2 National Governing Body (NGB) qualification.

All coaches undergo rigorous training, ongoing observation, and regular assessment to ensure consistently high standards. This enables us to deliver engaging, progressive sessions that are tailored to suit all ages and abilities.

Every session is carefully differentiated, ensuring each child is coached in line with their individual developmental needs. Our coaches are also trained to identify and support pupils with special educational needs, as well as those who are gifted and talented.

Working closely with school staff, the team ensures every child is supported and challenged appropriately, helping them to reach their full potential through sport and physical activity.
