About the event

We play a format of basketball designed to develop Game IQ which is not connected to, supported by, or affiliated with any sports governing body. No trials. No drills. No technical skills coaching. Nobody correcting your mistakes in executing their instructions.

Everyone is encouraged to find ways to express who they are as players as we play for fun, fitness, and kindness.  We laugh as we all (teammates and opponents) share in a dance of movement. We are teammates - we are opposition - we are family. A warm welcome is guaranteed.

Inclusion policy

We  are Imaginatively open. When someone joins - no matter how good or bad  they are at sport - everyone automatically imagines new ways for them to  share in a dance of sport. Sharing a connection is more important than  playing correctly so the rules of a sport are adapted so that everyone  can share in the dance - this is for the best as well as those who  physically struggle. Everyone is encouraged to find what works for them  in their context and to keep doing it till it stops working and then  stop while at the same time trying other ways to find what else works  for them in their context. To be free-thinking. Openly imaginative. We  want lots of alternative views on a given situation. We value a  viewpoint that doesn’t make sense to others because they are the most  imaginative. We want and seek neuro-diversity because having a variety  of approaches that are constantly evolving to any one problem creates a  high-performing, agile, creative, and inclusive community. We promote  fresh thinking. We are open-minded. Inclusion is in our DNA.

Health and safety

The additional risk for what we do compared to Sports Coaching is that we have a much wider range of abilities and ages. Sports Coaching manages this risk by streaming players by ability and age. We manage this risk in a different way so that we can safely bring a more diverse group of people together.  Click here to see our risk assessment in a google doc.

Tickets

  • Lets play ball

    We are a social enterprise. We use all profits to give those who are excluded or vulnerable to social exclusion a free experience of playing sports and games where everyone set's each other up to succeed. Where everyone constantly imagines other ways. Where everyone uses mistakes to find what is next and grow. Experiences to build a belief that they are not stuck as they are now. Thank you. Contact jon.thorne@LifeSkills21.club to get a free ticket

  • Pay it forward

    This "Pay it forward" ticket gives someone a free ticket to this event. They are typically people who suffer social exclusion because they think differently. They use our events to grow a belief in themselves that they can live a life of their making free from a fear of not being good enough in the eyes of others. Thank you!
