We are committed to working in Africa until at least 2010. Despite huge volumes of aid over many years, Africa remains in desperate need; it has the highest rates of poverty, disease and conflict and its children remain vulnerable. We aim to improve the quality of children’s lives in Africa by using sport programmes and development programmes to address their physical, emotional and spiritual needs.

How it started

From an initial short-term visit to Botswana by a team of sports coaches and children’s workers in 2002 (Rachel's Story), our outreach programmes have developed to benefit many people in Africa.  Rapid progress has already been made and the outcomes have vastly exceeded expectations.

Our Purpose

Our purpose is clear; to help develop indigenous individuals and organisations that work with children and young people, so that in turn they can use sport to share God’s love in words and action. Our development programmes include modelling sports ministry and leaving essential equipment and resources so that sports ministries can be established and sustained.

What we do

As part of modelling effective sports ministry, teams reach out with programmes to schools, churches and orphanages in the very heart of communities in need.

Hundreds of local volunteers have been trained and developed in sports ministry; it is they that are the key to long term sustainable success (Mothusi's Story). Thousands of children have already attended programmes and now many attend weekly programmes run by these new leaders.

Vision for the future

The model works.  Our vision is to transfer this proven model to communities throughout the world and enable thousands to learn about God’s love for them through their enjoyment of sport (Stephen's Story).
