The session is a single 45‑minute class run inside an existing course, designed to give each child space to try different ball sports without performance pressure.

Children move through warm‑ups, ball games and small movement tasks that build coordination and creativity while keeping the emphasis on fun.

THE VENUE

The trial takes place at padelBOX Weiden (Padelplatz 4), a clear meeting point that keeps arrivals and transitions simple for parents and kids.

What the day feels like

What the 45 minutes feel like

The hour opens with arrival and a greeting, moves into a shared warm‑up game, then cycles through ball‑based games and short movement challenges, and finishes with a group wrap‑up — an energetic, structured hour that still leaves room for exploration and play.

What to Bring

Comfortable, weather‑appropriate sport clothing; clean indoor sports shoes; a water bottle; optionally, a good bouncing ball.

Attire Notes

Dress in layers where appropriate — the indoor hall can be cooler than outside — and favor garments that allow free movement.

Extras

If you have a child’s ball that bounces well, bringing it can help with some of the drills, but it is not required.
