Street Soccer and Dance NL – Drop in sessions Tuesday’s between 7 to 9pm at Coltness High School.
Street Soccer and Dance NL targets young people aged 9 – 18, it encourages young people, parents and residents to help create an improved sense of health and wellbeing in their communities utilising football/dance as a ‘tool’ to divert young people. The Street Soccer sessions use a portable football pitch, skills zones and specialised coaches to attend hot spot areas without the need for expensive permanent facilities. Partners benefit from the relationships nurtured and then offer alternatives. Attendees will participate in a range of alternative activities and interventions which would not otherwise have been undertaken resulting in sustained crime reductions, breaking down of barriers, increased community participation and sense of wellbeing. Extensive evaluation is carried out with attendees, parents, residents and partners to ensure maximum results.
