Empowering Children with Disabilities Through Sports
Ability Sports Africa empowers children and youth with disabilities through our concept of reverse inclusion, where children are equipped with fundamental sports skills through our physical literacy assessment. This enables them to take the lead, develop leadership skills, and build the confidence needed to include their peers without disabilities in sports and play activities, thereby restoring self-esteem and overcoming the discrimination they have faced in society.
Adaptive Sports for Social Change & Development
Ability Sports Africa empowers children and youth with disabilities by promoting adaptive sports that build confidence, foster leadership, and encourage inclusive play with peers. Our mission is to create opportunities where every child thrives and feels valued.
OUR VISION
An inclusive community where children and youth with different abilities are fully included in physical literacy, adaptive sports, games and creative arts.
OUR MISSION
To empower individuals of all abilities by building their self-confidence, self-esteem, efficacy and life time skills through sports, creative arts, and physical literacy programs both in schools and communities.
