Nepal Sports Leadership Challenge
Make a real difference in local communities while exploring Nepal's culture, landscapes, and people.
- Nepal
- Health & Wellbeing
Challenge Snapshot
- Wander the ancient temple squares of Bhaktapur
- Deliver sports workshops that promote healthy lifestyles in local schools
- Spend weekends exploring monasteries and mountain trails
Overview
Nepal is known for its towering mountains and iconic trekking routes, but beyond the tourist trails lies a world full of heart, culture, and connection. Just outside the buzz of Kathmandu, in the historic town of Bhaktapur, the Nepal Sports Leadership Challenge begins. Working closely with local schools and educators, you’ll design and deliver hands-on sports workshops covering sports education, health promotion, and teamwork, helping tackle gaps in resources and training that hold local communities back.
Beyond the project, explore Durbar Square, try your hand at pottery or Thangka painting, and spend a weekend hiking in Dhulikhel, watching the sunrise break over Nagarkot. It’s immersive, eye-opening, and truly rewarding.

Not only will you feel a great sense of achievement, but it’s an experience that’s guaranteed to make you stand out in any future employment opportunity.
Are flights included?
Flights aren’t included in the programme cost because many participants choose to extend their travels before or after the programme, so booking flights independently gives you the flexibility to arrange your own travel plans. It also works out more cost efficient if you book them. Don’t worry though, we’re here for support if you need us.
Do I need any previous experience or qualifications?
You don’t need any previous experience or qualifications to join most of our programmes. We provide comprehensive preparation and support before departure, as well as a detailed Programme Orientation on arrival in-country, ensuring participants feel confident and ready to contribute to the programme.
Can I raise money to fund my trip?
Absolutely! This is something we encourage you to do, and we’ll help you set up an official fundraising page so you can share it with your network to collect donations.
What is the accommodation like?
You’ll either be staying at our hub, or a local partner guesthouse in dorm-style accommodation, sharing your room with up to three other participants. There are western showers and toilets, as well as communal spaces for relaxing. While you will be provided with home comforts, they will be different to your usual standards and all part of the challenge!
