Sev Necati Training worked with Tottenham Hotspur Foundation and it's young people through the Kickz project in Waltham Forest to deliver "Personal Safety" session to young people aged between 10-16.
The young people that engaged in the session were from a variety of backgrounds and ethnicities, with both females and males participating in the session.
The session was a combination of talk and practical in personal safety. Teaching young people how to be safe on the street, street awareness and practical techniques in self-defence.
“I liked how she showed you how to stand up for yourself”
“I learnt different techniques on how to protect myself"
“I really enjoyed the role play"
“I liked how I learned to defend myself”
In 2006, Tottenham Hotspur Foundation was selected as one of the four professional football clubs to pilot a Kickz project. Five years on, the Foundation has 8 kickz projects running.
Kickz uses sport and, in particular football as a catalyst for positive change but it is more than just football, it is about creating opportunities that can help change young people's lives, helping them to build their self-esteem and channel their energies in a positive direction and to help support them to achieve and fulfil their full potential.
Glen Hicks who looks after the delivering of the programme was very pleased with how Sev worked and engaged with the young people, saying the young people's feedback was positive.
If you are looking for sessions and workshops that are both engaging, interactive and fun, but also informative and educational then please contact us.

Gangs Team in Hackney works with Sev Necati Training
Sev Necati Training working in partnership with The Metropolitan Police and Gangs Unit in Hackney to deliver "Personal Safety" training courses to young people aged between 10-25. Sev Necati delivered sessions in some of the hot spots that were identified as being targeted and at risk from gang activity.
The young people were from a variety of backgrounds and ethnicities, with both females and males participating in the sessions. The sessions were a combination of talk and practical in personal safety. Teaching young people how to be safe on the street, street awareness and practical techniques in conflict management. Techniques also included knife work.
“I enjoyed the practical”
“The best thing was learning self-defence"
“How to use my voice"
“I liked how we learnt how to self-defence against a knife”
She worked in partnership with Active Communities with the Hitz programme and the Youth Offending Team.
"Sev worked with young people from the Hitz programme to deliver these sessions. The Hitz programme is based in the heart of inner city estates targeting young people at risk of exclusion and anti social behaviour. Introducing them to tag, touch and contact rugby; they utilise rugby’s unique ethos and the assets of the sport’s leading brands and players.
Sev worked with our young people in Hackney. The young people that engaged in the discussions and practical part of the sessions especially enjoyed the practical, which many said were fun and informative. With some of our older young people helping out in the sessions with the younger ones.”
Max Malkin Hitz Project Officer
Do not allow a tragic event like the recent riots or another person to be stabbed or shot before you decide to do something. It is imperative that young people and adults are able to assert themselves confidently and positively in conflict.
The training is a life-skill that everyone should have. It could help save yours or someone else's life.
