I’m Sam – founder of Blueprint Sports Guides.

After years working in the sports coaching world, I saw first-hand how powerful early movement and play can be for a child’s development, and how much potential there is to extend that learning beyond traditional sessions.

Whether it’s supporting children who thrive in sport and want more, or giving a gentler introduction to those who may not feel ready for group settings, I wanted to create something that lays strong foundations early on – just like parents do with words and numbers.

That’s why I created the first and only home sports practice guides designed for simple, one-to-one play between parent and child. It’s sport made accessible – from your garden or local park.

Parents and carers play a huge role in early learning; helping their child take their first steps in reading, counting, and exploring the world around them.

At Blueprint Sports, we believe sport should be part of that journey too. Our guides are built to mirror how children naturally learn:

• In the early years (2–5), activities are fully parent-led, turning sport into simple, playful moments that build strong foundations.
• COMING SOON: As children grow (6–9), our guides shift focus, encouraging the beginnings of independent learning with clear steps, technical tips, and personal challenges, while keeping parents close by for support and encouragement.
  

Physical activity isn’t just about sport, it’s about building skills for life. And it should start the same way everything else does: at home, with you.
