The Future of Sport was founded by John Brandon, an experienced education and sports professional with over 20 years’ experience working in schools and communities.John has spent his career supporting children and young people across a wide range of settings, with a particular focus on inclusion, safeguarding, and creating opportunities for those who may otherwise miss out. As a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and senior leader within education, he brings a deep understanding of child development, wellbeing, and the importance of safe, structured environments where children can thrive.

 

Having seen first-hand how cost, confidence, and access can prevent children from engaging in sport, John created The Future of Sport to remove those barriers and make high-quality physical activity available to all. His vision is simple: sport should be welcoming, accessible, and life-changing.

 

Our delivery team reflects that same commitment to excellence. All sessions are led by fully qualified teachers, coaches, and education professionals, each holding relevant sports qualifications, enhanced DBS checks, safeguarding training, and first aid certification.

 

Many of our staff currently work in schools and understand how to support children with diverse needs, including SEND and those facing social or emotional challenges.

 

Together, our team combines educational expertise with a genuine passion for sport, ensuring every session is safe, inclusive, and inspiring. Families can be confident that their children are not only active, but cared for, understood, and supported by professionals who put wellbeing first.
