As a coach and activist at the “Sport for Life” organization, this experience has had a profound impact on both my professional and personal development. It has helped me build my identity as both a coach and a teacher for various age groups and generations. Sport goes beyond being just physical activity—it develops a range of life skills in children, encouraging them to think outside the box and discover their abilities and talents in a safe and enjoyable environment. As a coach and teacher in gymnastics and basketball, particularly among girls, I have witnessed firsthand how sport enhances not only physical skills but also social and psychological growth. Trainees, whether in formal training or beyond, learn how to interact positively with others and become more capable of facing everyday challenges. I am grateful to “Sport for Life,” as it was the starting point of my journey and has contributed to shaping a cohesive and supportive community that fosters learning, growth, and empowerment.

"I used to think sports were only about winning and losing, but after joining the Palestine Sports for Life family, I realized that sports are a powerful message and a tool for learning and growth. With Palestine Sports for Life, I am on a journey of continuous development, strengthening my sense of belonging and responsibility to share this message so that others can benefit as well." "كنت أعتقد أن الرياضة مجرد فوز وخسارة، لكن بعد انضمامي إلى عائلة فلسطين الرياضة للحياة، اكتشفت أن الرياضة رسالة سامية وأداة للتعلم والتطوير. مع فلسطين الرياضة للحياة، أنا في رحلة تطور مستمرة، حيث تعزز لدي روح الانتماء والمسؤولية، لأشارك هذه الرسالة مع الجميع كي يستفيدوا منها."
— Suad Alqam, Coach at Palestine Sports for Life
"I started playing football when I was eight with my brothers in the camp. Some people mocked me, saying it’s a boys’ game, but I didn’t listen. At twelve, I joined PS4L with coach Yumon Masri, who helped me rebuild my confidence. I even played in the 2022 Street Child World Cup in Qatar—an unforgettable experience that changed my life. We received educational support from Qatar Foundation, and I enrolled in English language and leadership programs that will help me achieve my educational dreams and build a better future. Right now, we’re going through a very difficult time. The ongoing incursion into Tulkarem and its camps has displaced us from our home. I’ve been living away with my family for over 100 days. We left without taking anything—no clothes, no food—thinking it would only be a short time. But more than three months have passed. I miss the camp, my life, and my memories there. I miss my home the most. As a student, it’s hard to reach school because it’s far now. I’m also afraid something might happen on my way home because the incursion continues. But I won’t give up. I’m still fighting for my dream to become a doctor or a nurse. Training in PS4L’s safe spaces has helped me mentally and gives me the strength to keep going. I feel more responsible every day."
