Autism Services – Aspire Athletics Club

The Aspire Athletics Club is an 8-week inclusive sports program for children aged 7-12 and their caregivers. Designed especially for neurodiverse children, including those with autism and sensory processing differences, this evening program encourages physical literacy, teamwork, and social interaction in a safe, accessible environment.

Sessions at AAC will begin with a warm-up to prepare participants for activities. We will work on sport specific skills and drills and then play a fun game. The focus will not be on winning and losing, instead we will focus on having fun and playing to the best of our ability. There will be a cool down session after the game to celebrate our efforts and that will bring the session to a close.

Caregivers are expected to stay with their child/youth during club activities. When your child is having fun and participating, you are welcome to sit on the sidelines and enjoy the experience. When your child/youth needs support, you are expected to support your child and their needs. We may ask you to support your child when they are experiencing challenges. We provide cool-down spaces and cool-down kits for children and youth that are feeling overwhelmed or when people need a break from the noise and excitement.

Your child/youth will need water to remain hydrated, as well as a pair of running shoes. All other sports equipment will be provided.

Our winter session will be Thursdays February 5 – April 2 from 6:00PM – 7:00PM at JG Simcoe Public School. (We will pause for March Break)

Spaces are limited, please register below to be considered for our group. Once registered we will reach out to complete a screener to gather a bit more information about your child.

Please note registration closes January 26, 2026.
