YAA KICKS
YAA Kicks provides regular football sessions with the aim to encourage young people to make positive life choices and improve their mental health and wellbeing through physical activity.
In our football sessions each participant:
develops teamwork skills
increases their fitness levels
gains technical skills
sportsmanship
Specialist trainers coach each person to build their self-esteem and self-awareness to ensure that they apply their learning to their life choices. The sessions support the young people to build punctuality, commitment, leadership, responsibility, cohesive working to generate fun and participation with members of all abilities.
We are working in partnership with Chelsea FC Foundation.
