Our programmes will be aimed at helping through sport to improve the health and fitness of young people at the same time mentoring their social engagement and providing further opportunities not only on the sports field but in the world of education and employment. Through our programmes the charity endeavours to provide exit routes for the young alumni with the cooperation of local authorities and sports organisations.

My Sporting Chance will work towards educating and ensuring that young people can gain experience in order to become the full-time coaches of the future. Sport has the unique ability to give young people a positive focus in life regardless of any other difficulties that they may face. Opening up a sporting pathway for a young people through education and activity may or may not lead them to becoming an elite athlete but it will play a very positive role in their life. |
