Sports Education

Placement

If you are a lover of sports and enthusiastic to work with kids, but are not confident to take on a teaching program, then this is the program for you.

Volunteers will work with young children and sometimes an older people base on a volunteers request to develop their interest in a range of sports and increase their skill base.

In addition to the obvious physical benefits of physical education, the program helps to give children mental discipline and heightens alertness and coordination.

The program will generally involve physical training, teaching the kids how to work as a team, bringing the best out of the players and also give the children more self confidence.

Football is extremely popular in Ghana (as it is in most African countries) and therefore volunteers are encouraged to introduce different sports to the children. However football training can still play a large role in the program and generally football matches will be arranged between volunteer teams and others from the neighboring villages or towns.

Basic Information

We work in a variety of institutions in the Western, Eastern and Volta regions.

The children often have a good knowledge of football already, so when introduced to new games they are keen to learn.

Past volunteers have had great fun working with the children and playing games. Past football fixtures between towns often stirs up the locals!
