Premier League Kicks uses the power of football and sport to inspire young people to reach their potential.

The Premier League’s flagship community programme has been designed to engage 8–18 year olds, of all backgrounds and abilities, in activities across Watford, Harrow, St Albans, and Hillingdon.

The project aims to inspire children and young people to achieve their potential and improve their wellbeing; working together to build stronger, safer and more inclusive communities.

Through Premier League Kicks, the Premier League and the Community Trust will:

• Increase playing, coaching, and officiating opportunities in football and a range of sports
• Enhance physical and mental wellbeing, including self-esteem, ambition, and social skills
• Strengthen communities with a culture of volunteering, social action, and positive role models – supporting education, training, and employment pathways
• Work in partnership with young people, the police, and other stakeholders to support the younger generation with the societal challenges they face (e.g., youth violence) and to improve community safety
• Inspire young people to develop positive, supportive relationships with one another and the authorities
• Promote integration and champion equality, diversity, and inclusion
