Sporting Chance International has successfully run or assisted the running of football tournaments for a number of years. These take place throughout Kenya, from afar afield as Marsabit in the north and Kitengela, south of Nairobi. We deliver kit and organise a one day tournament. These often coincide with visits by team members from the UK. This may be the only competitive football the girls and boys play. They love to have a simple trophy to play for. They are so overwhelmed by the kits they receive.

We want to continue to make these tournaments happen. Young people have a lot of spare time but nothing to do. This creates a vacuum which can be filled in various negative ways. The football tournaments are a simple but very effective way of intervening in the lives of whole communities. We try to run as many as funds allow, at least two each year.
