MeWeSports addresses both the mental health and social needs of young people by combining physical activity with life-skills development that supports coping with adversity, strengthens a sense of belonging, and builds community cohesion. The programme creates safe, healthy opportunities for organised play, social connection, and supportive relationships with peers, coaches, and families. By working through non-traditional platforms such as community sports clubs, MeWeSports leverages the power of sport to promote mental wellbeing while strengthening existing youth-friendly community resources to prevent substance use initiation and mental health concerns.
