Volunteer Programs in Lobamba, Swaziland

Join in the Sports Volunteering Community project in Swaziland with Kaya Responsible Travel. Volunteers will assist the locally-led team in providing access to sports, exercise, and games for children aged under 6. As a sports volunteer, you will participate in the activities, supporting and encouraging children who are on the shy side, or who are struggling with following the rules of games. During weekends, volunteers have the opportunity to go hiking in the mountains, see the wildlife at Mkhaya Reserve, visit the cultural markets, relax in a spa, or watch a film in the local cinema! Volunteers are not required to have any specific skills, but a lot of energy and enthusiasm to help them keep up with energetic youngsters are a must. Volunteers must be interested in sports and those who are knowledgeable about the rules of games are welcome. Volunteers with sports coaching experience will be a great asset.

Contribute to the Sports Development Project in the Kingdom of Eswatini (formerly called Swaziland), and help improve the well-being of disadvantaged children in semi-rural communities through games and sport. The program aims to foster development among these kids by helping them get fit, healthy, focused, and stimulated — all while building their confidence through physical activities. The project was established in response to a need in the tiny but lovely Kingdom. Poverty and high levels of unemployment plague the country, leaving few opportunities to keep children engaged. This boredom can lead to antisocial activities, which are addressed by games and sports that hold the potential of improving the lives of disadvantaged children. During the mornings, volunteers help arrange physical activities and games for vulnerable and orphaned children aged 3-6, who are beneficiaries of the Neighbourhood Care Points (NCPs in the Ezulwini valley. In the afternoons, volunteers help out at homework club and computer club for primary school children. There may also be an opportunity for program participants to coach and play various sports with older children at the local sports centre.
