Children have a natural urge to move that needs to be encouraged. Nowadays, they spend too much time in front of the screen. For many, playing sports is too time-consuming and costly, and the motivation to play sports at all dwindles. Street Racket, on the other hand, is a low-threshold concept that requires no infrastructure, can be played anywhere, and costs very little, so the incentive is big.
Street Racket has already been implemented in schools, sports clubs, refugee shelters and camps, prisons and many other places around the globe. Kids have more fun to learn in combination with movement. The well-being of everyone in a difficult life situation improves.
Simple rules ensure long rallies, a sense of achievement and belonging. The game promotes motor, coordination and social skills. The playing fields can be drawed with chalk, tape, etc., outdoors and indoors.
Our vision is to make sport and exercise accessible for everyone, promoting acceptance of gender, religions and cultures, intergenerational communication and integration.
No expensive investments are required and no infrastructure is needed.
We work according to the train-the-trainer method. We offer a free app, teaching and practice books, online certifications and curriculum, YouTube videos and virtual content platforms.
Street Racket has already reached around 100 countries and moves thousands and thousands of people every day - in private homes, in schools, in companies, in sports clubs, you name it. We receive almost daily requests from all around the world for collaborations, webinars, workshops and interviews.
The goal for the next 2-3 years is to spread the concept further and focus on schools and vulerable populations. We also want to make street racket a club and association sport to gain greater reach, especially in the field of kids sport promotion.
Our big goal is to help make the world a better place, a place full of playgrounds for our children and youths, a place of more joy, laughter and fair play. In our opinion, Street Racket is predestined for this.
Get a racket (or something similar like a school book, a cutting board...) and a ball! Draw your court in no time and play! Bring the healthy activity to your doorstep instead of having to travel somewhere and ensure zero waste, but pure fun. Become part of the Street Racket family.
