The purpose of "Yes to Sports" is to inspire positive change by using sports as a tool to promote health, discipline, and unity. It aims to engage youth, reduce crime, combat social issues like drug abuse and crime, and build stronger communities through accessible, inclusive, and empowering sports programs.

To empower youth and communities through accessible sports programs, whilst creating employment opportunities for over 50 adults and the disabled. To reduce negative influences like drugs and crime through positive engagement.

Vision:

Our vision is to build a strong global movement that brings positive change through the power of sports. We want to create safe and welcoming communities where everyone has a fair chance to play and grow. No matter their background, or ability, every person should have access to sports and the support they need to succeed.

Our Campaign

“Yes to Sports” is a global initiative, born in the United Kingdom, empowering youth and communities through sports.

We focus on engaging at risk populations, promoting health, and building character by offering inclusive sports programs, mentorship, and awareness activities.

Empowering Youth

Engaging young people through sports to build confidence and leadership.

Health & Awareness

Promoting physical fitness and mental wellness through active participation.

Why Sports?

Sports are more than just games, they are a powerful way to connect people, break barriers, and shape better futures. They give youth a safe and positive outlet to express themselves, learn life skills, and stay away from harmful paths like drugs or crime. Through regular play, young people build confidence, stay mentally strong, and grow into healthy, responsible adults.

Here’s how sports make a real difference:

  • Character Building
    Sports teach discipline, teamwork, and respect for values that last a lifetime.
  • Mental Wellness
    Physical activity reduces stress, anxiety, and boosts confidence and emotional health.
  • Youth Leadership
    Young people learn how to lead, take responsibility, and inspire others.
  • Positive Alternatives
    Keeps youth away from negative influences by offering structure and purpose.
  • Stronger, Safer Communities
    Sports bring people together, build unity, and create pride in local neighbourhoods.

Program Components

The program will focus on a major awareness drive to position sports as an alternative to the negative challenges faced by society in the United Kingdom.
