Ignite Sport needs your support to get our team of 40 Naenae, Upper Hutt, Taitā, Wainuiomata & Porirua young people to Sports Camp!
Wellington
Every December Ignite Sport's dedicated youth development workers bring together a team of 40 senior high school young people to attend the Youth Sports Camp at Tōtara Springs in Matamata. The team spend 5 full days together - travelling, competing, connecting & fellowshipping. The camp is a stand out experience for many young people who attend as it creates rare opportunities for self expression, self reflection & self discovery. When we ask young people who attend they tell us that Sports Camp is a significant event in their life & their journey with Ignite Sport. Here's what a camper from 2024 had to say;
“I enjoyed meeting a lot of different people who I did not know before hand and just having a comfortable and supportive space where I could be myself and enjoy what I like to do most (sports). Sports camp helped me grow both physically and mentally - teaching me the importance of teamwork, perseverance and pushing past my limits. It provided a space where I could challenge myself, build lasting friendships and gain confidence in my abilities, all of which have shaped who I am today.”
Ignite Sport was established as a Charitable Trust in 2007. Growing drastically over the last 18 years, in 2025 Ignite delivers 40 individually designed youth development programmes to 10 school communities, reaching over 2000+ young people annually.
