Sport Calgary recently completed a seven-week multisport program at Applewood, engaging youth from Calgary Housing and the surrounding community. The program gave kids the chance to try new sports while also enjoying their favorite sport - soccer!

The first four weeks were led by coaches from Eastside Memorial FC, who introduced participants to soccer fundamentals and helped them build confidence on the field. The program then shifted to new experiences, with a week of volleyball delivered by Stryker Sports and a week of karate led by JKA Karate-Do Empow-LIL Academy. The program concluded with a final soccer session where the kids got to play a big final game!

This program created a safe and supportive space for kids to stay active, develop skills, and connect with positive role models, while building community through sport.
