Community Sports Program
Heading layer
Many children especially girls do not have access to sports in the community. The community grounds are generally occupied by physically stronger male youth who engage in local sports such as Cricket and Kabaddi. Girls and many smaller children do not have access to the community playground.
Using mixed-gendered sports that balance physical strength with other skills such as cognition, communication, problem-solving and collaboration, we engage boys, girls and different age groups of children together in sports.
It helps to develop mutual respect between diffrent genders and age groups.
Impact
In the last 5 years, we have impacted 31 communities in three diffrent states working with more than 1800 children.
Program Outcomes:
“The sports program helped in the holistic development of children. The attendance at school increased because of the program and children participated more in the classroom.“
