Active for Today and Tomorrow

StreetGames is on the side of children and young people growing up in low-income, under-served communities—using sport and physical activity to transform lives and strengthen neighbourhoods. Our approach, Doorstep Sport, brings the right activities to the right places, at the right times, delivered by the right people and at the right price.

The Challenge

Access to sport isn’t equal. Young people in low-income areas face barriers of cost, location, timing and style of provision—leading to persistently lower participation despite strong demand. StreetGames exists to bridge this sporting inequality gap.

Vision, Mission & Impact

Vision: Healthier, Safer, More Successful Communities Through Sport.
Mission: To transform the lives of young people in low-income, under-served communities through sport and physical activity.
Impact: Changing sport, strengthening communities, transforming lives.

What is Doorstep Sport?

An evidence-based model that adapts traditional sports to non-traditional, hyper-local settings—chosen with young people and underpinned by the “Five Rights”: right time, place, style, people and price. It builds confidence, competence and life skills, offering positive pathways and a pro-social identity. Youth leadership is central, and two-thirds of participants play no other sport locally—so this offer truly matters.
