Challenge

To bring together young girls from diverse backgrounds and to make them feel included through sport. Children of migrant families living in London, often combines with difficult situations at home and schools, some have absent parents or overwhelmed parents, due to overcrowding in homes or flats. Many also with pressure from social media. There are still too many young girls who feel they don't have access to the opportunities needed to build their self confidence and resilience.

Solution

Tracksuits are important items for kids to be identified as members of the club. It engages and motivates young girls to take up sport. Girls learn team-work, responsibilities, respect and understanding towards each other.
