About the Sports hub

The Sports HUB brings together all of Wavu Africa’s sports programs in one place so visitors can easily see how sport is used as a tool for peace, education, and opportunity.
Youth from communities such as Kibera, Mathare, Kangemi, Mukuru kwa Njenga, Viwandani, and Kiandutu access structured leagues, coaching, and mentorship that keep them engaged and away from risky behaviors.

Value-Based Sports (VBS)

Wavu Africa trains community coaches in a Values-Based Sports methodology that uses sport to teach resilience, teamwork, respect, and healthy decision-making.
Through VBS sessions, coaches integrate life skills, health education, and referrals to services, helping players address challenges like school dropout, crime, drug use, and gender-based violence.
