Why the project needs volunteers:There are several reasons for the project seeking the assistance from volunteers: for example the advantage of learning different soccer techniques, and other sports, the cultural exchange and the positive advantage children will gain from spending time with native English speakers. The combination of coaching sports with teaching young people English will make a positive impact on their lives and provide more opportunities in the future to them, such as going to university, getting jobs in tourism, business and commerce.
What kind of skills you need to go this project:Volunteers most of all for these projects must have a love of sports and be committed to the project. You will need to be flexible and be willing to get involved in anything. You will need to be able to think on your feet so that you are able to tailor your coaching sessions to the different needs of the children if necessary. Spanish language is not a pre-requisite but a working knowledge would be a great advantage as most people do not speak English. The add-on Spanish lessons are recommended they will help you to settle into your project.
Your role as a volunteer:This project aims to improve education and culture in children through sports. This project promotes competitions and recreational activities to encourage interaction between communities. Volunteers will assist coaches to arrange and conduct training sessions as well as ad hoc English lessons to the children.
