Kids activities Paphos area

[CALIAM]

Hi new to this forum and looking for some info on any clubs with outdoor activities for kids. We have apt in Peyia (just tipping toe in water to see if we could actually move over, but 11 year old son dead set against it). Were over for about 8 weeks last year and although we did plenty with the boys (6 and 11), the older one doesn't want to be doing all the things with mum & dad. The apts were very quiet & weren't any kids for them to play with. So thought if there were any clubs, he's really athletic and would give any kind of activity a go, maybe he'd settle in a bit better & actually look forward to coming over this year. Please help!!!
