Sacred Sports Foundation
Network Member
Sacred Sports Foundation (SSF) was developed as a sustainable youth development catalyst for change in St. Lucia and the Caribbean. Its mission is to assist disadvantaged communities through socially inclusive sports development programmes for young people aged 6-25 in low-income areas. They also have specific target groups, such as special-needs children and young people on probation.
Football training integrates topics of communication, conflict management, gender awareness and health directly into drills. Additionally, SSF supports a number of its older participants in a coaching and football management training course.
