Youth Programs

The Youth Services team run a great range of programs at Somerville Recreation Centre for young people in the local area. 

Youth Drop-In 

Somerville Recreation Centre offers a Youth Drop-In Program for all kids aged 10 - 17 years.

Our Youth Drop-In Program gives young people a safe space to hang out with their peers. Participants can stay for half an hour or the whole 2 hours - it's totally up to them!

The program allows kids to spend the afternoon meeting new friends, playing cards or board games, racing each other on the Nintendo Switch, having a hit of table tennis, or playing four square. This program also gives the children an opportunity to interact with the local Youth Services team.

Free Basketball Skills Session

A basketball skills session is offered on Friday afternoons for anyone ages 10 - 18 years. Whether you are new to the sport or have been playing for a while, this session allows you to build on your skills with the help of qualified basketball coaches.

Schools Outreach Program

The Youth Services team actively partner with schools across the Peninsula to help support the mental and physical wellbeing of young people in the community.
