Say YES to ball games! We are proud to stand with ldn_sport on their mission to transform outdated ‘No Ball Games’ signs into real opportunities for play within London.
London Lions players helped unveil the first reimagined sign – now a fully functional basketball hoop – at the Mursell Estate in Lambeth with the aim of shining a spotlight on the city’s youth inactivity crisis and the role that these outdated signs play in it.
According to the charity London Sport, ‘No Ball Games’ signs deter an estimated 80 young people from engaging in sport and physical activity - which could have led to more than half a million young people being discouraged from playing and staying active.
