As children get opportunities to play sport, join teams and engage in hobbies, cultural outings and recreational activity their horizons expand and they grow into more well-rounded adults with vision and purpose as to who they can become and how they can contribute to those around them.
Positive reinforcement plays a huge role in dealing with individuals like Hari
Hari,17-years-old, has been a part of our Chennai football programme for the past 4 years. When he and his mother were physically abused by his father, who struggles with alcoholism, sports enabled him to channel his frustrations in a positive way. He showed major improvements in behaviour and character after activity-based learning and life-skill sessions in the field. Positive reinforcement plays a huge role in dealing with individuals like Hari. Appreciation and constructive feedback are great tools that enabled him to perform better, both on the field and in their personal lives
