Purpose
1WORLD Sports is a global 501(c)3 dedicated to developing healthy kids and responsible athletes by promotion and encouragement of the values that can be learned from sport. Our focus is to primarily impact at-risk youth ages 6-16 years old. 1WORLD Sports inspires youth to embrace critical life values such as nutrition, community and the importance of education all while experiencing the pure joy of the game.
Joy of the Game. 1World Sports is committed to inspiring kids everywhere to love sports and enjoy life’s journey as ‘athletes for life.’ From events to inspire, to partnering with on-the-ground organizations, we are all about bringing the joy of the game!
Environment to Succeed. 1World Sports is dedicated to providing an environment to succeed. In many parts of the world, experiencing the joy of the game is not possible because there is no equipment or field to play properly. Wherever 1World Sports goes, it will strive to shape an environment where children can enjoy and grow from sports.
Developing Healthy Kids. 1World Sports is focused on teaching our kids life lessons through sports. We do this through our workbooks: Responsibilities of an Athlete and Nutrition and Fitness Guide. The 1WORLD Sports curriculum is designed to engage and challenge kids ages 6-16 to learn these important life lessons.
