What an incredible year 2024 has been! The numbers truly reflect our achievement. Throughout the year, we have proudly stated that we provide the most free football sessions for YP in London, and today, we can share these numbers with the public—they speak for themselves.
The 7th impact report for 2025 Sports Fun 4 All's Brockley Session. The session takes place at the prestigious Rocky & Wrighty Arena on the Turnham Estate in Brockley. The venue opened in 2023, but we were finally able to start using it in April 2025.
The 6th impact report is for Sports Fun 4 All's Bellingham Session, which has been running since July 2021 and currently runs every Thursday and Friday. Bellingham Leisure Centre is a 9-a-side 3G pitch that attracts young people from across Lewisham Borough and further afield.
The 5th impact report is for Sports Fun 4 All's Deptford Session, which has been running every Tuesday and Friday since May 2023. There is a lack of floodlit facilities in North Lewisham, which is reflected in the number of young people attending the session: 166 in 2025.
The 4th impact report for 2025 is for our 4th venue+our longest-running session, Downham.
Delivery began in Sep 2016, and nearly 10 years of consistent delivery demonstrate our commitment and stability in serving the young people in South Lewisham.

The 3rd impact report is for the Coldharbour session the 1st of 2 in Greenwich, starting in Jan '23. Despite challenges in promoting the location, we persevered, resulting in an average attendance of 25. The quality 3G pitch attracts YP from as far as Kent, showcasing the appeal
The 2nd 2025 impact report is for our 2nd venue in Lewisham @oakgardensps which falls in the Brockley ward. It remains a vital part of our efforts to provide free football for young people in the north of the borough, with 81.94% of participants living in social housing
In the coming weeks, I'll be sharing the 2025 Impact Reports for each of Sports Fun 4 All's 13 venues.
First up is our Catford Session at @SDCEnterprises. This venue holds a special place in my heart, as it's where I grew up playing football back when it was known as 'Pitz'
A massive well done to Elias Fazli, a truly deserved award for the relentless professionalism+drive you show
You consistently turn up for YP and display high standards in a sector where it is often lackadaisical.
This is just a drop in the ocean of the recognition you deserve.
Congratulations to Davarel, who was nominated for Young Leader of the Year at @LondonYouth Awards
Davarel has worked with us since January 2024 + has been instrumental in cementing our delivery in Southwark and Lambeth.
He is mature beyond his years and a natural youth worker.
