DSKS Sports Club: More Than a Game—Bringing Our Church Community Together

DSKS Sports Club brings together members of Debre Selam Kidist Selassie Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in Manchester. Beyond weekly worship, the club offers a welcoming opportunity to spend time together and take an active part in church life.

Playing together encourages teamwork, respect, discipline and fair play. Members get to know one another, build trust and develop friendships through shared effort and encouragement.

The club provides a positive way to keep active, unwind and spend time together. Regular gatherings can strengthen a sense of belonging and help members feel more connected to their church community.

Members can contribute by joining the games, helping organise sessions and encouraging others to take part. As the club develops, friendly matches and shared activities could create further opportunities for fellowship and community engagement.

Church members interested in taking part should contact the parish for the meeting place and session arrangements.
