Programs to their community youth aged 8 to 18.  This will impact over 1,000 girls!

The US and Global Award Winning Be An Inspiration Program is an initiative of Netball America Inc. that uses sport as a platform to empower youth for peace and strong futures, while increasing participation in sports, reducing childhood obesity, breaking down barriers to reduce discrimination and increasing social-emotional well-being.

"We've designed a fun education, nutrition and physical fitness program that takes pressure off girls having to lose weight, be athletes, be rough in sports and instead focuses them on participation in fun-filled activities on topics such as decision making, goal setting, body image, leadership etc, while forming healthy habits and learning the globally popular and inclusive sport of Netball", says Sonya Ottaway, Co-Founder of Netball America.
