Academy

Our academy in Stellenbosch, South Africa is a safe space where at-risk boys are receiving high-level football coaching, academic support, education outside the classroom, and mentoring. Together we are creating pathways to a brighter future for participants and their families.

Our healing-centered curriculum is intentionally designed to foster the holisitic development of athletes. In addition to pursuing excellence on the pitch, we use football as a means to bridge existing socio-economic gaps, pursue equality and justice, celebrate diversity and create a shared learning platform for the community.

“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to unite in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination.”
-Nelson Mandela
