We were completely surprised with the uptake on the Rascals programme. Our expectation was to have 20 participants at those age groups knowing the lack of access we have to the local infant schools in the region in comparison to the Primary schools. The Under 5\u2019s &amp; Under 7\u2019s (Rascals) sessions attracted 74 girls in the Treorchy region alone; these were our most successful Rascals sessions out of the entire programme. It truly has been wonderful to see how many females are taking to Rhondda Netball to fulfil not just their health\/fitness needs but to give them a \u201cfamily\u201d and a sense of belonging. It has made us recognise the need for our new motto, \u201c<b data-identifyelement=\"265\">Rhondda Netball \u2013 More than Sport!\u201d.<\/b><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"266\"><b data-identifyelement=\"267\"><i data-identifyelement=\"268\"><span data-identifyelement=\"269\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"270\"><i data-identifyelement=\"271\"><span data-identifyelement=\"272\">PYC helped support the costs of our coaches at Treorchy who have done a phenomenal job of growing the club and pioneering our Rascals programme. Each coach is dedicated to continuing to make an impact on the young girls\u2019 lives and this wouldn\u2019t have been possible had it not been for Pen Y Cymoedd.<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"273\"><i data-identifyelement=\"274\"><span data-identifyelement=\"275\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"276\"><i data-identifyelement=\"277\"><span data-identifyelement=\"278\">Parents have benefitted from the increased engagement from their daughters. It<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"279\"><i data-identifyelement=\"280\"><span data-identifyelement=\"281\">also gives them the opportunity in Rascals to spend time with their daughters. From feedback from the parents themselves they are thrilled that their daughters get to be under the influence of such positive role models (our coaches) that daily encourage them to be the best that they can be. They also enjoy the fact that their daughters are no longer \u201cbored\u201d, \u201croaming the streets\u201d, or \u201cstuck on their phones in the house\u201d.<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"282\"><i data-identifyelement=\"283\"><span data-identifyelement=\"284\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div data-identifyelement=\"285\"><i data-identifyelement=\"286\"><span data-identifyelement=\"287\">The coaches have also benefited from the increased opportunities to give back to their local communities and to impact so many young peoples\u2019 lives.
