When I was running a club I had a lovely 80 year old coach who ran a boys only recreation program me (though some girls ended up in there as well). The class was always packed to the rafters with a waiting list of boys wanting to get in. Mike (coach) knew the magic of how to keep boys going. The class was noisy, busy, with lots of laughter. There was always plenty of games and the favorite was when the class was split into two teams and two boys of similar size/strength competed in an obstacle course. I once got noise complaints from the neighbors! Sadly, Mike retired and I was unable to find anyone with his skill to replace.
