Face behind Little All Sports
Hi, I’m Lisa – Owner and Lead Instructor at Little All Sports.
Sport has always been a huge part of my life. As a child, I loved both netball and swimming, with swimming becoming my main passion. I competed at county and national level and travelled across the country for competitions until I began full-time work and could no longer commit to the demanding training schedule. I continued my love of fitness by qualifying as a fitness instructor, teaching evening classes and meeting people of all ages through sport.

I’ve lived in Walton for over 30 years with my husband Mark, a keen cricketer, and our two now adult children. Sport has always been at the heart of our family life — from netball and football to cricket. Our daughter recently graduated with a Master’s degree in Sports Therapy and now works with a local physio company, while our son is studying Sports Science with plans to coach and teach children in schools.
After leaving the corporate world to raise my children, I followed my passion for working with young children and became a qualified childminder, later achieving my NVQ Level 3 qualification. I spent nine wonderful years caring for children. My favourite moments were always outdoors — throwing, catching and kicking balls while encouraging children to stay active and have fun.
In 2014, I co-founded Little All Sports with my friend Ruth, creating fun, active movement sessions designed especially for preschool children. After navigating the challenges of Covid and changes within early years activities, I took over the business independently in 2023, continuing my mission to inspire children to be active, confident and socially engaged through sport.
Today, Little All Sports runs weekly sessions at our Walton venue, delivers activities in local nursery settings, and hosts after-school clubs for Reception to Year 2 children.
I strongly believe that developing a love for physical activity at a young age is one of the most important gifts we can give children. In a world where technology increasingly fills children’s free time, helping them build confidence, independence and a lifelong love of movement is more important than ever.
Little All Sports ethos: Helping Little Ones Grow, develop and have fun Through Sport
I really do love meeting all the children their families and of course their extended family members who come through LAS doors. Getting to know the children individually is the best part of the job and making them feel welcome, supported and encouraged. Seeing their confidence and ability grow is such a pleasure to see. It really makes my day when a child goes out of a LAS class giving me high fives and smiling; and comes back again ready to get active and have fun ….who would not want this as a job?!
