What is The Huddle Project?
Access to Opportunties
The Huddle Project, a joint-funded programme by Tottenham Hotspur, the National Football League (NFL) and Nike, was launched in October 2023 to provide increased access to free sporting activity.
The dual sport programme, combining football and NFL FLAG alongside wellbeing activities, quickly became popular among young people, with 436 taking part in 189 sessions during the first year.
Through a £1 million investment over three years, it is hoped the Huddle Project will not only provide access to sporting activity, but also employment opportunities.
Hear from Muskaan
Participant Muskaan, 15: “The Huddle Project coaches make it so safe and fun that you just want to be there all the time. It benefits you physically, mentally and socially.
“Since I’ve been participating, I’ve been able to do work experience with the Foundation and now I volunteer with some of the other coaches at their football sessions. I did Spurred 2 Coach with the Foundation, through the Huddle Project. It’s just opened loads of doors for me.
“I’m planning to do my FA coaching qualification, then hopefully become a casual coach at the Foundation and slowly work my way to full-time.”
