A Fundraising Event for Creating Chances’ Festival24 project

Tuesday 28 May

9.30AM – 3.30PM | David Phillips Sport Fields, Daceyville NSW | Supported by NSW Positive Rugby Foundation

We invite you to Play with Purpose, a social impact sport festival to raise crucial funds that will support Creating Chances’ youth delegation to attend Festival24 during the Paris Olympics 2024 in July. 

For the first time ever, we’re bringing our purposeful youth sport events that celebrate diverse cultures and fair play to our partners and friends in the private and community sector. 

The event provides opportunities for adults to compete, work together and step out of their comfort zone whilst also developing leadership and event coordination skills for young people.

Creating Chances

Creating Chances is NSW Education’s most trusted partner, currently operating in more than 130 Primary & High Schools with most experiencing high levels of socio-economic disadvantage.

We deliver pathway programs that target specific cohorts of students from Year 5 all the way to School-based Traineeships offerings in Year 11 and 12, and work with the private and community sector to increase impact, and the University of NSW to measure and demonstrate that impact.

Scheduled for July 18-27, 2024, in Lyon & Paris, France, the event will unite 500 young people (comprising 64 delegations worldwide) to engage, learn, connect, and shape the future of sport. Creating Chances proudly represents the sole Oceania delegation, featuring six school-based trainees aged 16-17 hailing from diverse, regional, and remote communities in NSW. Accompanying them are a young leader delegate and a head of delegation. For many, this will mark their first international travel experience, presenting them with a unique chance to enhance their interpersonal skills and contribute to a legacy of the Olympics. They will bring back valuable insights to our programs in Australia, enriching our local communities.Drawing inspiration from the Football for Good Festivals (F4FG), a renowned global initiative celebrated for its remarkable positive impact on youth leadership development, this festival aims to amplify the effectiveness of sport-for-good programs worldwide.
