​​​​​​​Twilight Sports is a free, seven-week, non-competitive indoor sports program aimed at encouraging social inclusion and participation for 12-18 year olds in a fun way. 

The program is designed to engage young people through sport in a safe, supervised environment, while benefiting the Canterbury Bankstown community through: 

• Providing positive role models for young people;
• Providing young people with access to local youth and support services;
• Providing young people with opportunities to participate in a variety of physical team sports;
• Providing safe activities for young people out of school hours;
• Providing volunteering opportunities and training; and 
• Building self-esteem and resilience in young people.

The program is entirely free and includes dinner, uniforms and transport home each week. It is also a safe outlet where young people are encouraged to participate in life skills workshops in order to become more physically, socially and mentally healthy.

Players and volunteers are encouraged to: 

• Enjoy the spirit of the game and not focus on winning;
• Use the games to build both players skills and interpersonal relationships; and 
• Give all players an opportunity, regardless of skills and experience.
