About the programme
SPORT AS A VEHICLE FOR CHANGE
Developed by former Child Centred Policing Lead and All4Pickleball founder Sheena Maclean-Bell, the programme combines physical activity with personal development to support improved wellbeing, school engagement and long-term participation in sport.
Pickleball is uniquely positioned to engage young people who may not traditionally participate in sport — easy to learn, highly inclusive and quick to build confidence through early success.
