Sporting Aid has been an invaluable partner with the sporting provision that they provide for young people around the borough of Broxbourne.

My experience with sporting aid, has always been positive. I think it is important to actively engage with young people.
Sporting Aid provides skills for personal development , help, support & advice is always available. Teamwork is important, as working together you achieve more . Young people should be recognised for their achievements, and that is what Sporting Aid does through their projects & work with young people. They have made a difference to the outlook & lives of people who engage with their projects. I am proud to support Sporting Aid & look forward to working them again in the future, thank you Sporting Aid for making a difference, for your active participation & positive hard work with young people in the Borough of Broxbourne.

I have been very impressed with the progress made by Sporting Aid under the leadership of Hafi and Lewis. Their ability to understand what local young people want and need, along with their tenacity to go out there and make it happen is very inspiring. Sported have supported them with one of our volunteer mentors, Gary, who has helped them think about their long term future.
I believe Sporting Aid have a really important place to play in encouraging young people to be active and to be part of their local community for many years to come and Sported are excited to continue to support them to help them reach their ambitions.

It has been a privilege to witness the incredible impact that Sporting Aid CIC has had on Broxbourne's young people. Their diverse multisport programs including skateboarding , basketball, football, and cricket have engaged over ( ?no of young people ?) helping them to stay active , develop vital skills and help them to build lasting relationships.

Following the reopening at the Waltham Cross playing fields re-opening it is clear that everyone (?Lewis Cocking MP and Hafi? ) is passionate about making a positive difference in our community. My grandchildren tried it out and my grand daughter is about to start Skateboarding. As I drive by daily there are always young people taking part in some one of the sports.

Thank you to Sporting Aid CIC for your invaluable work in supporting Broxbourne .I encourage everyone to learn more about their programmes and consider getting involved

Sporting Aid has successfully secured an Annual Community Grant from Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council to offer free Friday night basketball sessions for young people aged 11-18 within the borough. This basketball program creates a safe and inclusive environment where participants can play, socialise, and develop new skills.

I am privileged to have worked with Hafi on the Sporting Aid funding strategy and I have been impressed by their immediate grasp of what is needed to succeed. They have a rarely found understanding of the importance of data and a willingness to partner with other organisations to achieve the best outcomes for their participants. This, alongside their work rate and enthusiasm, sets them up well to deliver complex projects and deliver on their objectives
