Swaziland sports volonteering
April 01, 2017by: Stacey - United KingdomProgram: Sports Development Volunteer Program, Eswatini (Swaziland)This was the first time i had travelled on my own. All the the staff made me feel very welcome and safe. The project was really fun i participated in circle games, supported a day of football, went to a game reserve and got to help some children on the first swimming lesson. I also really enjoyed supporting the children at the homework clubs. As well a getting to have amazing experiences on the weekend.
Good opportunity to volunteer in Swaziland
February 10, 2016by: Martin - FrankfurtProgram: Sports Development Volunteer Program, Eswatini (Swaziland)I worked in this project from January to March and it was good fun! The volunteering experience is really rewarding and the accommodation is beautiful as well. Be aware to choose your volunteering time within Swaziland's school terms- otherwise your experience might be a little disappointing as there's not a lot of work to do.
