In many parts of the world, children looked to develop themselves in many areas. Sporting area is just one of those areas that a parent who wants the best for their kids will spend a lot of time doing. In the western world, many soccer and other sporting moms do so by moving their kids from one field to another. As you lived in the western world, you will quickly pick up the the positive importance of sports to the development of the child for which sporting moms will be willing to invest so much of their time and money to have their kids on the team. Even though some parents will introduce their child to sports to remove him/her from other distractions engulfing their surrounding, the majority do this for the child or children’s character molding and shaping that can be brought to the child from sports through friendships from teammate, installing leadership or opportunities to lead others (team captain), learning how to manage stress from defeat, self-regulation, accept failure and improving on failed steps and brings a lot of good sense of meaning and purpose at an early age. Sport can also build the child strength both mentally and physically and can even move the child from poverty. In Africa, many kids turned to sports for recreation and entertainment. These kids have the talents and only need some help to link them with people that will seek their interest of being best at what they are doing. Some who are better in schools need some helping hands to further their studies and improve their games. We in SAMDA having studied the situation that many of us were once upon a time in, have decided to take the below objectives:
