sporting activities for kids with little or no sporting background?

Question

I've recently taking up a position as sports co-ordinator for a deprived area. I'm looking for new ideas for activities for kids that may have no sporting background

Answer 1

soccer is generally a good sport because it requires minimal
equipment - just shoes and shin guards, and both can be purchased resale.

Most kids can run (if they want to play sports anyway) and the rules are fairly easy.

It moves quicky, and keeps their attention. Good luck!
