United Kingdom
Although Onside Ministries was set up to work mainly overseas, in recent years we have been developing the U.K. side of our work in both football and basketball. In 2013 we ran both basketball and dodgeball tournaments in the south of England and also joined up with the team from Camp XL to run a football camp in beautiful Devon.
