The Kids League is a non government development organisation whose mission is to improve the lives of young people disadvantaged by their economic circumstances, lack of education, health care or geographical location thorugh using the power of sport and recreation to build child friendly spaces where they can interact develop and demonstrate positive attitudes and behaviour.

 

Our Vision: The Kids League dreams of a world where young people have the opportunity to improve their lives through access to sport and recreation to break down barriers and build life skills to equip them for life as Global Citizens.  Over the next 3 years, The Kids League will continue to develpp and support sustainable sporting activities in the pursuit of wider development goals.

 

 

The Kids League (TKL) developed from the hugely successful Kampala Kids League (KKL) voluntary association. 'KKL', as it is known locally holds the most number of World Youth Cups in Africa with South Africa and Nigeria holding two such and in total KKL has won 21 international trophies - a truly remarkable achievement.

 

After seeing how the KKL sports programmes  not only football but also basketball, cricket and other sports were changing children's lives an NGO called The Kids League was registered and, now known as 'TKL', the NGO went on to organise football programmes for disadvantaged youth in the rural districts of Uganda most notably perhaps in the northern (now former) conflict zones in Uganda.

Aiming always to involve local people throughout its operations, volunteers from the community are trained as referees, coaches and administrators. It is the children’s teachers, parents or guardians who run in various aspects of the programme delivery withTKL staff acting as coordinators.
