New Horizon Sports has made a significant positive impact on the local community through our initiatives in 2023. By providing free access to sporting events and fostering a sense of community, we have empowered young people, volunteers, and local organizations. NH Sports Cup 2023 Provided free participation for 140 young people. Engaged 7 dedicated volunteers to support the event. Supplied sports equipment and prizes to enhance player skills and motivation. Helped young people build confidence and self-awareness through structured sporting activities. Community & School Engagement: Partnered with local schools to strengthen community ties around sports. Created a positive environment that encourages teamwork, discipline, and personal growth. Future Plans – Men’s Tournament 2025: Working with the local council and businesses to bring this initiative to life. Designed to increase confidence and broaden perspectives through: Seminars on personal and professional development. Community-building activities to foster connections. Sporting events to promote teamwork and resilience. Initially planned for 2024 but delayed due to funding constraints. Review & Impact Summary In 2023, New Horizon Sports successfully delivered a free, high-quality sports tournament that provided young people with access to resources, mentorship, and competition all at no cost. By working closely with schools and volunteers, we have created an inclusive environment that encourages both athletic and personal growth. Despite funding challenges delaying our men's tournament, we remain committed to launching this initiative in 2025, expanding our reach, and ensuring that sports, mentorship, and community engagement continue to transform lives.
Stakeholder Consultation New Horizon Sports actively engaged with key stakeholders throughout 2023 to ensure our initiatives met the needs of those involved. Our primary stakeholders include the schools participating in our tournaments, the young people who take part, and the volunteers who help deliver our sessions. Through direct conversations and informal feedback, we gathered valuable insights into the impact of our work and areas for future growth. We regularly spoke with young participants to understand their experiences and how our programs benefit them. A common theme that emerged was the importance of having an outlet beyond academics. Many students expressed that they struggle with their studies, and being part of a structured sporting event provided them with a sense of achievement and motivation. For those attending underfunded, low-income schools, the tournaments offered an opportunity to engage in an activity that excited them and gave them something to look forward to. The sense of belonging, competition, and personal growth was a key factor in why they valued these events. Our volunteers and coaches also provided meaningful feedback, highlighting the long-term benefits of our sessions. They observed that structured training and analysis, including performance statistics and coaching insights, helped students better understand the sport and develop their skills. Volunteers noted that over time, participation in the tournaments led to increased confidence and a stronger sense of self-belief among the young people involved. They also felt that their own contributions were making a real difference in shaping a positive community. While we did distribute formal surveys, we found that face-to-face conversations and word-of-mouth feedback provided deeper insights into the impact of our work. The personal stories shared by students, teachers, and volunteers reinforced the necessity of our initiatives, demonstrating the crucial role New Horizon Sports plays in empowering young people through sport, mentorship, and community engagemen
