Turn the pitch into a place of possibility with the Enabling Leadership PLAY program

For over 55 years, the Netherlands Charity Organisation (NCA) has been a force for positive change in Singapore. With this collaboration we proudly spotlight a flagship initiative that is transforming young lives, developed in partnership with the global non-profit Enabling Leadership. The EL Play Program is a life changing Life and Leadership program that uses the power of football to reach children in Singapore. But this is not just about learning to play a sport. It’s about learning to lead, on and off the field.

Empowering Girls and Boys through Life Skills and Leadership Skills. Sponsor one child or a whole team and empower the leaders of tomorrow.

ZOAT x ENABLING LEADERSHIP

By choosing Enabling Leadership as their Charity of Choice, ZOAT turns sport into impact. Both share the same values – teamwork, resilience, and leadership – and now every match played helps underprivileged kids in Singapore gain those skills through football coaching.

Why Enabling Leadership is a Perfect Fit for ZOAT

ZOAT brings together the Dutch, and International, community in Singapore around sport, camaraderie, and healthy competition. Sport is more than just a game—it’s about teamwork, resilience, and leadership. That’s exactly why the Enabling Leadership program is such a natural fit as ZOAT’s Charity of Choice. Through structured football coaching, Enabling Leadership empowers underprivileged children in Singapore to learn the very same skills celebrated at ZOAT: working together, building confidence, and growing into future-ready leaders. What participants experience on the pitch – collaboration, discipline, creativity – are life lessons these children carry into school, their communities, and their futures.
