A Sporting Chance
project toolkit

Choose an appropriate location

The building must;

• Have status in the mind of the learner and the teacher
• Be accessible, that is it can be reached easily by the target audience
• Not resemble school or the training workshop

This is the advantage of using a sporting venue that has a cultural impact in the local community; it is a building that is well known and, usually, easy to reach, and is definitely not school.

However, it does not have to be directly associated with the sporting venue, it is possible to create a ‘brand image’ elsewhere by using pictures, ICT and using approaches/methods that are not like those provided within traditional education/training.
