     Cape Town football coaching volunteer

     Football in Cape Town (South Africa) with Real Sport Experience
 

Learning core ball skills

[Full Image]
Cape Town is an amazing city with vibrant night-life and idyllic beaches, making it the perfect place to visit during a gap year or career break. However, outside the city there are many townships in desperate need of volunteer assistance. Children lack access to necessary education and many have no structured environments to spend their days.

You can help rectify this by providing much needed teaching and sports coaching assistance, with opportunities to spend your free time surfing, at the beach and doing any of the great activities here.

Your efforts really do make a difference. Lulu, one of the most talented kids from the project, has recently gone from not owning his own kit or football boots, to being selected to play for a professional team and will be playing in an international tournament in the Nou Camp in the summer of 2008!

   Itinerary & Highlights

  Typical Volunteer Day:

08.00 to 09.45am Breakfast
09.45am Mini coach to school
10.00am to 1pm Assistance at school
1pm to 2.30pm Sports Coaching for 7-10 year olds
2.30pm to 3.15pm Lunch
3.15pm to 5.15pm Training Session with 10-15 year olds

Most schools finish at 2pm each day, so children tend to have free time for the rest of the day. There are very few activities in which children can engage in and there are few or no scheduled sports classes, where they can learn the importance of teamwork, improve their fitness and develop their coordination skills.
   

   Accommodation & Centre Details

  All accommodation is included during your programme. You will spend your first 2 days and last 2 days staying in a comfortable hostel in Green Point, which is a safe area with good restaurants, bars etc. The hostel is less than 2 km’s from the city centre, Victoria and Alfred waterfront complex and the site of the new football stadium being built for 2010 World Cup. The hostel is professionally run, has two swimming pools, a bar and self-catering facilities.

After your first 2 days (and orientation) you will be transferred to the project accommodation, which is with a host family in Hout Bay. The house is situated 5 minutes away from the Township School and 5 minutes from the Hout Bay town centre. The large family home has all the modern amenities necessary, plus a swimming pool, stables and fields where they keep horses!

During busy periods, volunteers will be accommodated in an apartment in Hout Bay town centre, with all of the necessary amenities.

During your time on the project, you will be provided with 3 meals a day. Meals will be made from local produce, which typically consists of rice, vegetables, chicken and fish. A packed lunch will be provided for you when you are at your placement.
