Here at Coach Thomas Youth Development, we offer kids from the Township of Masiphumelele the opportunity to participate in swimming, surfing, soccer, and hiking. Our primary aim is to improve the physical and mental well-being of both the kids and the community at large.

Our team is made up of committed volunteers, most of whom are from the community of Masiphumelele. The COVID-19 pandemic had a hugely negative impact on the operation and finances of CTYD, but we remain resilient. Encouraged by the enthusiasm of our kids, we continue to run and grow our activity programs. Read more about our origins and our programs, and please contact us if you would like any further information or to get involved.
