Product Details

Malawi schools are typical of many others in the developing parts of Africa – the children out number the teachers and in a number of instances, the ratio is well over 150:1. Sport therefore has no priority, adequate facilities or dedicated people to teach and play with the children.

Join this sports volunteer programme to help teach sport in schools. Based in Monkey Bay on the shores of Lake Malawi, you will have a vital role to teach children different sports such as football, volleyball and netball.

Volunteer Role

Volunteers are needed to lighten the load on teachers in 4 local schools. You can perform a number of roles on this project, some of which include:

• Teaching sports in schools – popular sports requiring volunteers are netball, volleyball and football
• Organise after school sporting events such as clubs, tournament and matches
• Work with local sports teams to assist coaches and gain good coaching experience
• Teach academic subjects in the mornings such as English, maths or vocational skills

Programme Location

The programme is based at Monkey Bay on the shores of Lake Malawi
