Summer of Sport is here — and the Highlands is in on it

High Life Highland is proud to be part of Summer of Sport, a national campaign backed by the Scottish Government and sportscotland, bringing more opportunities for children and young people to get active this summer.

Whether it's trying a sport for the first time or building on existing skills, Summer of Sport is all about giving young people across Scotland the chance to move more, have fun, and feel good.

Getting the game going

What Summer of Sport means for the Highlands

As a partner in the campaign, we're helping to bring activities to communities right across the region — from sports sessions and clubs to our Schools Out holiday programme.

There's something for all ages, abilities and interests, and we're working hard to make sure that as many children and young people as possible can get involved this summer.

Find something for your child

Browse and book activities in your area through our Schools Out programme and local venues. If you're not sure where to start, just get in touch — we're happy to help you find something that suits.

Are you a club or community group?

If you run sport or physical activities and want to get involved, there may be funding and support available through the Summer of Sport programme. We'd love to hear from you. 

We are looking for collaborative projects that increase activity levels locally and allow for sustained participation in sport.  We want to reduce barriers to participation, enhance local offerings, celebrate sport and physical activity through events and festivals and upskill our volunteers and coaches to ensure a sustained impact from the project. 

We envisage grants to community groups to be in the region of £200 - £2,000 but welcome broader ideas and applications in. 

Pure joy on the pitch
