Sport 4 NRG

Free Sports Activities for Young People in Thanet

The aim of Sport 4 NRG is to provide sporting opportunities as a way of diverting them away from anti-social behaviour. The project provides weekly sessions and special school holiday events.

 

The Sport 4 NRG programme is the Council's commitment to delivering opportunities for young people to get involved in sport and attracts hundreds of young people every year. This is is response to the priorities recognised in many surveys conducted by the Council asking for more things for young people to do.

 

The age group for Sport 4 NRG is 12 – 17.

 

Sport 4 NRG is funded and delivered by Thanet District Council and Thanet Works following the successful 3-year Sport England funded project.
