Premier League 4 Sport is a ground breaking new partnership between the Premier League, the Youth Sports Trust and West Ham United Community Sport's Trust. The aim of the initiative is to extend the range of Olympic sports the Trust offers to young people from East London. The project offers an exciting opportunity for young people to take up non-traditional sports, and is making a significant contribution to widening participation in Badminton, Judo, Table Tennis and Volleyball.
The programme invites participants to take part in introductory sessions after school, and as their skills develop refers them into a local community club that will encourage a life long participation in sport. The scheme showcases the club's continuing commitment to community multisports, and highlights how the power of football and the West Ham brand can be used to inspire young people to become all-round athletes as we build up to the games in 2012.
