Here is another update from our Sports Programme in Cambodia!
As we have mentioned in our previous reports, our programme is continuously growing! We are currently in the process of hiring more coaches so that we can reach out to a higher number of children in the area of Siem Reap. Our coaches are all part of our local staff. They know the areas we work in, they can communicate well with the children, and they live in nearby communities. Recently, we held a coaching clinic for our newest coaches, where they learned all about physical education and imparting life-skills through sports.
Sports Festival!
On December 15th, our Cambodia teammates are organising a sports festival for the children that are part of our sports programme in Siem Reap. This event will bring together children from different areas of the community for a fun day of sports, music, food, and friendly competition. The children can enjoy their favourite sports and connect with other children from the area. Along with the kids, the parents are invited along to support their children on this festive day. It’s a community event!
Our sports festival will include as many as 1,000 children and will prepare us for our next year’s event that will include children from 5 additional regions. As many as 6,000 children will be included in our festival next year as well! We are very excited about the expansion and the quality of our programme, and we are looking forward to a fun day for our children in Siem Reap.
