Sport is a unique and influential connection that binds people together within societies; it is one of the greatest unifiers and has immense potential to impact lives. Sports propagates the assembly of people from various walks of life for a common goal. Its unifying experience, depicts the prototype of what a united society could look like. Sports can be a powerful means to break social barriers. Sports propagate core values such as teamwork, hard work, respect, and discipline, which we hope to inspire in our communities through our initiatives. Sport, whether for recreational, professional, or educational purposes, is not merely about fitness, it could be instrumental to fostering a prosperous and healthy society. Much like a country’s educational system, media, or political and social movements, sporting events bring disparate people together by strengthening ties and celebrating the common ideals of fairness, sacrifice, hope and fulfillment.
Nelson Mandela said in 2000: “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youths in a language they understand. Sports can create hope where there was only despair”.
