Sports Council
No comments Irvine
<p>As a Sports Council we would like to support young people in the Irvine Area participate in Sport and Physical Activitiy and increase the number of people who participate in sport. We are a group of 14-17 year old young people who have had some great experiences and opportunties in Sport of our own and we want to help others have this too. We have personally seen that sport can help with our physical, mental, social and emotional wellbeing and we strongly believe that all young people should have the access to physical activity to help improve their own wellbeing. One of the barriers for young people to take part in sport is the access to sports kit and the access to free sport sessions. As a Sports Council we already offer free sessions (in a variety of different activities) but the young children who we see often don't have a tshirt / shorts etc often miss out or are embarrassed that they don't have sports clothing and therefore don't come to clubs. By having sports kit to give out, this will hopefully remove that financial barrier and make sport more accessible for all and allow us to create a sports community with strong representation and identity. The target group for this support would be 12 & 13 year olds in the Irvine area. </p>

As a group we want to be able to provide young people in our community with quality equal opportunities to take part in sport. We believe that this can promote healthy mental and physical wellbeing among these young people. Through leading these extra curriculum clubs, it helps boost young people’s overall physically activity to help meet the government’s guidance of 60 minutes a day. It teaches the young people the benefits of physical activity as well as how it can improve mental wellbeing.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="line-height:107%">We also hope that in providing new sporting opportunies for young peole that they may be able to find one the enjoy or love.
