Volunteer Sports Programs in the Maldives

General Info

Sports are enjoyed by people the world over, and Maldivians are no exception! It’s still one of the best ways to unite people, creating strong community spirit and forging lifelong friendships.

Our sports programs have been very successful, with more to be implemented next year, working with new islands and NGO’s.

Volunteer Maldives works alongside local coaches who are either part of a youth and sports group, or work within schools.

Whether teaching aerobics, badminton, volleyball, football, dance – a myriad of opportunities await volunteers with lots of energy and enthusiasm to inspire the youth – and to get the more mature islanders moving also!

Volunteers are needed to develop better sports programs and to allow children to discover where their talents lie. There are also opportunities to combine a sports program with another project such as pre-school or teaching... you can utilise your sports talents and get involved with after school clubs to really enhance your volunteer experience!

You will be an assistant on these projects and help plan, prepare and deliver sports, games and activities within the community, as well as encouraging and motivating those who attend. You can act as a referee or help coach the people in their chosen activity. You can also help organize tournaments and competitions and help draw up training schedules if you have lots of energy!
