Turn spare football boots into real opportunities for young players across Africa. We collect pre-loved boots in the UAE, clean and inspect every pair, and ship them to academies and clubs that need them most.
By connecting donors in the UAE with grassroots teams across Africa, we reduce waste, lower costs for academies, and help more kids play safely and confidently.
Extending a boot's life cuts landfill and makes football more sustainable.
We prioritise underserved communities and schools with limited resources.
A simple, transparent process designed to keep good boots in play.
Drop off clean, good-condition boots at a collection point or request pickup (Dubai only).
We inspect studs, laces and soles, then sanitise and size-tag every pair.
We work with logistics partners to deliver to vetted academies and schools across Africa.
Clubs distribute by size so every player gets a safe, suitable pair and gets back to training.
Updated monthly. Transparent tracking from collection to pitch.

I built Kick Forward to make donating boots simple and to turn small actions into real impact. Football gave me confidence, discipline, and community — and I wanted more kids to feel that too.
Kick Forward exists to reduce waste, remove barriers for young players, and create a clear, trusted donation pathway between the UAE and grassroots clubs in Africa.
You can help by donating boots, sharing the mission, or partnering with us for a school or club drive.
