Program description: |
|
|
Wherever you travel in the world everyone enjoys sport. Sport brings people together and breaks down barriers. It fosters community and friendship between those who take part and gives those who watch a sense of belonging. Sign up to teach sports in Ghana and you'll be based just outside Accra at a football academy. The academy was set up to provide all children, many from underprivileged homes, the chance to pursue a career in sport.
Projects Abroad volunteers work alongside local coaches, helping with football and general fitness training. You don't need to be qualified, a sports star or even terribly good at football to take part. Just your presence and support will help the students' language skills and general education. Many volunteers also take out a rounders bat and a Frisbee and get the children warmed up by playing other sports. At the weekends you'll have the chance to watch the professional football stars at the Accra ground where local team Hearts of Oak play regularly.
