Sports Projects
Sports projects are a really active and enjoyable way to spend your gap year. Teaching a sport in a foreign country can be a life-changing experience, not only for you, but for the children you work with. Sports coaching can have a very positive impact on children, especially in their development for the future.
The love of sport is universal and it brings people together, helping to build stronger communities and societies. Sport may be the only thing that some children have.
There are plenty of opportunities all over the world for anyone who wants to join a sports programme. You can coach football in Ghana, or play cricket with children in India, or help the Maori teach rugby in New Zealand. The possibilities are endless. The only thing that’s limiting you is your ambition and imagination.
You’ll be involved in the organisation of a team, from skills sessions to coaching competitive games. It’s all down to you…
Whatever your skills or amount of time you have available to offer, there are children who will benefit from you volunteering.
