Kwinana Nightfields Success

Wednesday, March 9, 2016 - 12:47 PM

Another successful Nightfields program was held last week in Kwinana at Orelia Oval, the night saw over 120 kids participate in a variety of sports including Football, Netball, Cricket and Basketball.

Nightfields was developed in 2015 to engage at-risk youth in local communities by involving them in football programs that are supported by a range of employment, training, education and social support services. The key outcomes of running this program are the:

  • Effective engagement of the target demographic through regular attendance and retention keeping them from being involved in harmful activities
  • Increased awareness of social support services in the local community
  • Integration of support services and police with target demographic
  • To be able to play and have fun in a safe environment

 

Each participant enjoys a healthy dinner when they register each night, along with a social, engaging and fun environment.

 

The third session is held this Friday 11th March, 5.45pm – 8pm.
