Welcome to my Franchise
Welcome to our Franchise
Welcome to our Playball Belfast family where children are motivated to want to play, be active, and learn essential fundamental skills for all sports. We are a multi-sport programme that encourages all-round development through structured sports play sessions in groups of up to 8 (6 for age 2-3 year olds). Helping children find their feet on the sports field is just one small part of what we do at Playball. Our primary concern is developing the whole child cognitively, socially, emotionally and physically, so that they feel confident to try new things, become more independent (leaving mum (Icando) or the caregiver) and enjoy social time with new friends in a teacher-led environment. Our coaches are motivated and are experts in their field, working with young children and delivering excellent high-quality Playball classes.We provide, classes, camps, parties, after-school classes and curriculum classes.

Conor Brennan
// Mobile: 07734384616 Hi, I’m Conor, and I’m passionate about helping children build confidence, skills, and a love for sport in a positive and supportive environment. Sport has always been a big part of my life, and through coaching, I’ve seen how powerful it can be in supporting children’s physical, social, and emotional development. As both a parent and a coach, I understand how important it is for children to feel safe, encouraged, and included when they take part in sport. I currently coach with Comber Rec Soccer and will be coaching underage teams at East Belfast GAC. My focus is always on enjoyment first — creating sessions where children feel comfortable to try new things, learn at their own pace, and develop confidence alongside their skills. My coaching style centres on energy, encouragement, teamwork, and respect. Every child is different, and I aim to create an environment where each player feels valued, supported, and excited to come back each week. I am most excited about working withe the 2-4 year olds! |

Watching children learn, explore, and realise “I can do it!” is what inspires me most, which is why I love being part of our I Can Do classes.My goal is to create a fun, supportive, and encouraging environment where every child feels confident to try new things, build skills, and celebrate their successes — big or small.Outside of coaching, I’m a big sports enthusiast! Netball is my favourite sport, and I also loved gymnastics growing up, which sparked my appreciation for movement, teamwork, and building confidence through physical activity — something I bring into every session.I can’t wait to help your child learn, grow, and shine! |
