Ball Life Kenya is a community based program providing extra-curricular activities to young children in Kenya. This opportunity will allow the participants to interact outside of school and build solid relationships. This vision evolved from the members who formed Ball Life Kenya. Our goal is to bring players with the desire, dedication and talent together to play at a high level of competition. More importantly we have a positive impact on the lives of children in the community. Currently, we are branching out with the objective of giving back to the community by keeping our young children between the ages of 6 and 18 occupied in a positive manner. With our mission statement- Passion Driven Purpose Bound! Winning starts at the center! It is our expectation not only to develop champions on the courts but winners in life.
By participating in this program, the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship, and leadership will be stressed to prepare our participants for real life situations. As an extra-curricular activity, it is essential to understand the benefits this opportunity will provide. After completing research, we found sports reduces the risk of obesity, improves coordination and balance, and also enhances social and personal skills. The participant’s physical movement body coordination will develop over time after continuing to actively participate. We have all heard the phrases, “Education is the Key to Success,” or “Knowledge is Power.” The participants will learn the benefits of excellent time management skills along with the importance of prioritizing for educational purposes. Ball Life Kenya stands firmly behind education as the foundation of success.
The School Holidays are with us yet again. While we love having our children home with weeks of unstructured and unproductive time, it can sometimes be frustrating.
This program finds ways to give the children a structured basketball and fitness program on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9am to Noon.
Included in the program will be the imparting of life skills, mentorship and improving of basketball skills.
