Our mission

is to Inspire young people 

Our Mission: Inspiring Growth Through Sport

At Goals for Growth, we believe in the power of sport to transform lives. Our mission is to create inspiring experiences that empower young people aged 11 to 14, guiding them toward personal development, confidence, and resilience. 

The Impact of Our Program

Through dynamic coaching, structured activities, and mentorship, we provide young people with the tools they need to adapt on and off the field. Our program offers:

  • Character Growth – Building leadership, discipline, and perseverance.

  • Confidence & Self-Belief – Encouraging students to push their limits and embrace challenges.

  • Teamwork & Social Development – Strengthening interpersonal skills through collaboration.

  • Health & Wellbeing – Promoting an active lifestyle and overall mental resilience.

Our Vision for the Future

To expand our reach and deepen our impact, we aim to transition from a Limited Company into a Community Interest Company (CIC) or Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). This shift will allow us to better align with our values, ensuring that all resources are reinvested directly into youth development rather than profit-driven operations (All profits to be reinvested into the programme). 

Our vision doesn’t stop here. In the future, we plan to expand our learning opportunities by introducing programs such as ASDAN, offering further pathways to success. For now, our focus remains on building a supportive community that empowers students, celebrates their strengths, and helps them tackle challenges with confidence.

With this new structure, we plan to:

  • Secure Funding & Grants – Access new funding streams to increase accessibility for all young people, regardless of financial background.

  • Develop Key Partnerships – Collaborate with schools, local councils, and national sports organisations to offer expanded resources and support.

  • Enhance Mentorship Initiatives – Introduce peer-led leadership programs, where older students mentor younger participants, fostering a culture of guidance and encouragement.

  • Launch Scholarship & Support Programs – Provide financial assistance to ensure inclusivity and break down barriers to participation.


  • At Goals for Growth, we believe in creating spaces where every young person feels valued, connected, and equipped to succeed. This is just the start of our journey

Join Us in Shaping the Future

We invite local businesses, sports clubs, and charitable organisations to join us in creating a lasting legacy of empowerment. Whether through funding, mentorship, or partnership, your support will help us make a difference in the lives of young person, inspiring the next generation to thrive.

Together, we can harness the power of sport to create opportunity, build resilience, and cultivate leadership—one young person at a time.

Our vision doesn’t stop here. In the future, we plan to expand our learning opportunities by introducing programs such as ASDAN, offering further pathways to success. For now, our focus remains on building a supportive community that empowers students, celebrates their strengths, and helps them tackle challenges with confidence.
