Volunteers on this program will be involved in planning and running various sports lessons and games including football, cricket, athletics, basketball and netball with children from 4 to 14 years. The project is in a local school where you will also at times be assisting local teachers and GVI staff to organise sports events and help run various outdoor activities. Sports is a vital tool that will motivate the students outside of the classroom setting and give children the opportunity to develop various skills and their confidence in general. In your free time you will get a chance to explore the culture of Kerala by taking cooking or yoga lessons, visiting the local sights in Kochi, the enchanting backwaters or the tea and spice plantations in the hill station of Munnar.

Special memories and good, challenging work
by: James Markham - United KingdomProgram: Teach Sports in IndiaI'd rate my first GVI program in Kerala, India as 5 stars also. This was back in 2012, and was an education project which I was part of for three months. It was an excellent 'gap year' experience, India is a wonderful country and culture and the volunteer work was a brilliant learning experience which I owe so much too. The staff were extremely helpful and the base was very safe and I have a lot of very special memories there.
