With Hockey for Change we want to support the growth and accessibility of field hockey to underprivileged communities in South Africa and hopefully, one day, in other countries. There are lots of people and groups in South Africa who have devoted their time and resources to empower youth and create opportunities through sport. Inspired by our own experiences and a shared love for this sport, we would like to contribute to the work of these people and support other talented young players who lack the resources to explore hockey and benefit from it.
To do so, we rely on donations of essential equipment (sport/pe kits, hockey sticks, balls, shin guards and sport shoes) from our community, local schools and hockey clubs.
We have partnered with people and organisations in the area of Cape Town and Johannesburg and are working with them to distribute what we collect to their communities.
