Football for Child Development is born out of the need to engage our students in physical education while keeping them busy and in great company. WYCF observed that teenage pregnancy, domestic violence and forced/early marriage were on the rise within our target communities, so implementing new activities was the perfect opportunity to bring everyone together through a game they love.
We are using the power of sport combined with education and life skills by creating sustainable opportunities for young people in communities where crime, violence against women and girls, and social exclusion are prevalence.
With our Football, Martial Arts and Boxing we promote self-control, respect, discipline and provide young people with required supports to create positive futures for themselves through formal and informal education.
