Youth on Solid Ground is a youth-driven, community-focused charitable organisation dedicated to empowering young people. We offer universal youth services and specialise in sports development, leadership training, and supporting young people in re-engaging with education, employment, and training. Our weekly activities include open-access youth club sessions, football coaching, advice and support

drop-ins, and a bi-monthly youth forum. We also organise inspiring events, competitive football tournaments, and multi-sport sessions like tennis, dodgeball, and badminton, all delivered by our qualified in-house coaches. Our fun-packed half-term, Easter, and summer play schemes (HAF) are a hit, offering creative arts and crafts, group games, trampolining, and multi-sports. We also provide targeted services, including issue-based discussions, group sessions, 1-to-1 mentoring, and interventions. Outdoor adventures and annual residential trips add a sense of excitement and connection to our programs. At the heart of everything we do is tackling youth violence, crime, and anti-social behavior in a safe, supportive, and loving community environment. Together, weโ€™re building stronger futures for young people!

๐ŸŽพ FREE Tennis Festivals Coming to Manchester Parks Next Week! ๐ŸŽพ

Weโ€™re excited to be delivering a series of FREE tennis festivals across several Park Tennis venues next week, including:

๐Ÿ“ Alexandra Park
๐Ÿ“ Debdale Park
๐Ÿ“ Fogg Lane Park
๐Ÿ“ Wythenshawe Park

These fun and inclusive sessions are open to boys and girls aged 4โ€“7 years, providing a fantastic opportunity for young children to get active, learn new skills, and enjoy tennis in a welcoming environment.

Delivered in partnership with the Lawn Tennis Association and We Do Tennis, representatives from both organisations will be on-site at each park to support the delivery and help create a positive first tennis experience for every child.

Whether your child is picking up a racket for the first time or already loves the game, weโ€™d love to see them there!
