Foundation for Sport Coaching CIC, known in the community as Foundation 4 Sports Coaching, was set up in October 2021 and works with children and young people aged 5 to 25 across the southern arc of Cardiff, in communities facing high levels of deprivation and few opportunities. We use sport, coaching and mentoring to build confidence, discipline and aspiration. In the year ending 31st October 2025 we engaged over 1,200 children and young people and delivered hundreds of structured sessions. Weekly provision included Youth Nights at the local pavilion for 14 to 25 year olds, our Youth Prevention Programme, a children’s football academy, basketball sessions, and a female only sport and fitness session attended by around 170 women and girls each week. Our holiday and diversionary programmes covered the periods of highest risk. These included Operation Bang, half term Youth Nights, Midnight Ramadan, an Easter camp with over 100 children a day, and a summer camp running ten days across five weeks with 130 children a day, including hot food. Alongside the sport we run mentoring and workshops on financial literacy, crime prevention, STEM and career pathways. Our after school mentoring with Fitzalan High School has supported over 58 young people aged 11 to 16 back into mainstream education, and more than 20 have progressed into employment, education or training through our Volunteer Pathways project, supported by Volunteering Wales. All delivery is covered by our safeguarding policy and carried out by vetted, qualified staff and volunteers. Around 44% of the young people we work with live in areas of high deprivation, 54% are from ethnic minority groups and 48% are girls, and over 97% take part in more than one of our programmes. The benefit to the community is that young people in a deprived part of Cardiff get affordable and mostly free access to sport, positive role models and mentoring, and are occupied on the evenings, weekends and holidays when risk is at its highest. Parents and carers get provision they can trust and afford, and young people leave us with qualifications, with work, or with a route back into education. We deliver in partnership with Tiger Bay Amateur Boxing Club, Fitzalan High School, South Wales Police, Cardiff Council and Youth Justice Services, and refer young people on where they need support we are not the right people to give. The work is funded through a mix of grant funding from public bodies, trusts and foundations
Our stakeholders are the children and young people who come to our sessions, their parents and carers, our volunteers and sessional staff, local schools including Fitzalan High School, Cardiff Council, South Wales Police and the Police and Crime Commissioner, Youth Justice Services, partner organisations including Tiger Bay Amateur Boxing Club, and our funders. We consult young people at every session and through participant surveys, speak to parents and carers at drop off and pick up, debrief staff and volunteers at the end of each project, and meet regularly with police, council officers, youth justice colleagues and school staff. Funder monitoring returns and end of project reviews also feed into how we plan the next block of delivery. This changes what we deliver. Women and girls asked for a space of their own, so we created the female only session now attended by around 170 each week. Young people and parents told us transport and cost were the main barriers to attending, so we bought a vehicle during the year and kept sessions free or low cost. Police and community feedback shaped Operation Bang and our half term provision, requests for somewhere to go late in the evening during Ramadan led to Midnight Ramadan, and school staff asking for help with pupils at risk of exclusion led to our after school mentoring.
