The document discusses a vision for increasing sports participation in Wales through community programs. It summarizes StreetGames and Doorstep Clubs, which aim to get more young people and 16-24 year olds participating in sports regularly. These programs emphasize developing local community sports models, empowering communities, and investing in volunteers. The Pill Youth Forum in Newport, Wales runs a Doorstep Sport Club to provide opportunities for local youth through partnerships with organizations like StreetGames and local sports clubs. The Forum believes these partnerships help them achieve their goal of benefiting their deprived community.
