Description

The socio-sporting schools in El Salvador first opened in 2003. In over a decade of activity the school has managed to increase its sphere of impact, with its eight schools benefiting boys and girls from the city of San Salvador and neighbouring towns.

The school offers socio-sporting training for boys and girls who are at risk from social exclusion and who come from underprivileged economic backgrounds. Whilst children at risk from being recruited by gangs also amongst those who benefit from the programme.

In addition to the sporting activities, participants also receive workshops and training courses on values, nutritional supplements and school equipment. The attendees also attend camps and trips to aid their integration.
