Our Story

I am passionate about using sport to empower, encourage and develop children. Not only does sport have great physical benefits but it can also teach children fundamental life skills such as leadership, teamwork, resilience and different ways to communicate.

I believe sport is more than just a game and that is why Not Just Sport was created.

Gaining experience globally and seeing the impact sport has on young people was key in Not Just Sport’s founder Wesley Driskel’s decision to form a company offering children the opportunity to gain self-confidence, belief, sporting experiences and life skills they can use in everyday life.

Wesley gained a BA Honors in Sports Coaching and Community Development from Middlesex University. Complementing Wesley’s academic background he also has a wealth of football coaching experience with clubs such as Tottenham Hotspurs FC, Real Madrid FC and the Spanish Soccer School – founded by ex-Real Madrid player Miguel Salgado.

Having taught PE in the UK and United Arab Emirates Wesley has witnessed first-hand the benefits of sport and how it can change young people’s lives.

What people say

As we left the session last week, Joseph's friends were in the park. They all play in a team together but their game had been canceled. They was having a kick around and asked Joseph to join in and he did for about 30minutes.

He has never done this before and he said he wouldn't have done if he hadn't had the lessons with you !! Thank you for improving his football and confidence.

Wesley is a brilliant leader and his work as a sports coach and lifestyle coach is outstanding. His lessons, based on sound educational principles, are always motivating and enjoyable and he creates rapport with groups very quickly. Group discipline comes with ease through the combination of clearly communicated boundaries and Wesley's natural warmth and kindness. I can highly recommend him

TEE DOBINSON - Speaker, Author, Leadership Executive Coach

Wesley and ‘Not Just Sports’ values-driven approach have placed themselves at the heart of our school. Wesley and his team have the respect of our children, parents and staff. They are an integral part of our day from: morning sports coaching in breakfast club, PE lessons and lunchtime games play through to after-school clubs.

Wesley has strengthened our school curriculum to include intra-school and inter-school sports competitions. Children’s skills and engagement have been systematically developed as they have worked towards a competition. Often, these have been linked to local, National or International sporting events. Not Just Sports are great at spotting children with potential talents, interests and those who have made great progress during their time with them.

I sent my son to not just sports summer camp mainly to get a break from the day to day grind of being a single father, however my son came away from his experience not just fitter have having shed some of his puppy fat but also had gained a respect and appreciation for a multitude of sports that he played whilst on camp. I cannot thank NJS enough for Thier commitment to providing every child with an inclusive experience. Worth every penny. Thank you

My son loves his football sesions on a saturday. He has learnt a few new tricks and got a lot better with his ball control. The coaches are great with the children they really encourage them throughout the sessions.
