StreetGames is a charity that brings sport to disadvantaged young people in England, Wales and Scotland. All projects in the StreetGames network of organisations are locally funded and controlled. StreetGames is a response to the lack of sports provision in disadvantaged areas. (The Sport England Active People Survey ) shows that young people in poverty participate in sport about (half as much as those in prosperity ), although there is demand. StreetGames promotes doorstep sport〔(Doorstep sport, archived from StreetGames Web site )〕 to disadvantaged communities. ==Background== A successful football tournament was organised in April 2003 by the FA, the Government Office for the North West and the regional renewal programmes. The tournament’s objective was to run a sporting event for young people in renewal areas, giving youngsters the chance to take part. Following the tournament, the StreetGames charity was set up by half a dozen organizers of neighbourhood sports projects in 2005.〔(StreetGames Web site, About )〕 StreetGames is registered as charity number 1113542 with the Charity Commission, and as company limited by guarantee number 5384487 with the Registrar of Companies. StreetGames was awarded Sport Lottery Funding for a three-year grant in 2006. Since then StreetGames projects have spread across England, Wales, and Scotland. Most of the founding team of StreetGames were still with the organisation : Brian Dickens, Su Cumming, Kerry McDonald and John Dwan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「StreetGames」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
