Newham Youth Playmakers - Basketball & Football Sessions

This project aims to deliver and coordinate regular football and basketball sessions for young people and young adults in Canning Town and Custom House. The sessions will combine active play with structured coaching, giving participants the chance to improve their fitness, develop sporting skills, and build confidence in a safe and supportive environment. Beyond the physical benefits, the project focuses on personal growth by promoting teamwork, discipline, leadership, and communication. By engaging youth in positive, inclusive activities, the project will help reduce isolation and the risk of anti-social behaviour while strengthening community connections. The long-term goal is to create sustainable opportunities for young people to stay active, motivated, and inspired to progress both in sport and in life.
