Youths of Talai settlement

Youths making community safe through sports

To achieve their objective, the youths of Talai settlement, Badili, decided to keep everyone busy by hosting a volleyball competition, which started on August 27.

“The idea is to minimise the number of petty crimes, law and order issues and alcohol abuse,” resident Jenny Auda tells Loop PNG.

“We had no idea they (youths) had volleyball skills until we witnessed it ourselves during the games. Therefore we have decided to build them up then enter them in town or suburb competitions.”
