Small-Scale Sports Support Proposal

Equip the Field.
Empower the Young People.

A practical starter investment to provide coaches and young people with the basic equipment required to begin structured sports, life-skills and youth empowerment activities.

A Small Investment With a Practical Starting Point

Our empowerment approach uses sport as an entry point to engage children and young people in structured activities, mentorship, life skills, wellbeing and positive community participation. Before pursuing larger programme funding, we propose beginning with a modest equipment package that allows coaches to start, practise, pilot and demonstrate the programme.

Why This Support Is Needed

A lack of basic sports equipment can limit the number of young people who can participate and makes it difficult for coaches to deliver consistent, organised sessions.

  • Provide coaches with essential training equipment.
  • Increase the number of young people participating at each session.
  • Introduce multiple sports and activities.
  • Improve structure and organisation during training.
  • Support safer and more purposeful activities.
  • Create a practical foundation for programme piloting.

What This Equipment Will Make Possible

The objective is not simply to acquire equipment. It is to create the practical conditions for coaches and young people to begin implementing the wider empowerment model.

01

Regular Sports Sessions

Coaches can establish consistent, structured sports activities instead of relying on improvised equipment.

02

More Participation

Additional balls, bibs and markers allow more young people to participate actively during each session.

03

Better Coaching

Coaches gain the basic tools required to organise drills, small-sided games and progressive training activities.

04

Multiple Sports

Football, basketball and volleyball can provide different participation opportunities for young people.

05

Safer Activities

Basic training and first-aid resources help coaches create a more organised and safety-conscious environment.

06

Evidence for Growth

The pilot can generate participation records, activities, stories and results that support future funding proposals.
