When Laureus was first established in 2000,there was little widespread understandingof how the power of sport could be usedto change society and improve people’s lives.

Today, thanks in part to the pioneering work of Laureus, there is a real awareness among governments and international agencies that sport can play a significant role in helping them to achieve their objectives.

Over the years Laureus has developed an innovative concept which has helped grassroots sport-based organisations to function effectively, derived from the vision of Nelson Mandela, the Patron of Laureus.

President Mandela told us in a speech he delivered at the first Laureus World Sports Awards ‘Sport has the power to change the world’ and subsequently the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation was formed with the mission to fund and promote the use of sport as a tool for social change.

Laureus today, as it was in the beginning, is still a funder of community sports programmes around the world. Indeed we have pumped more than €60 million into projects since 2000 and we currently support more than 140 projects in 34 countries. But in recent years Laureus has gone far beyond this and has pioneered significant innovations in the sport for development world.

Without over-stating the case, I really see this as a transformation of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation as we know it.

TRAINING

Since 2000, when Laureus made its first grants to innovative projects using sport to inspire young people, Laureus has supported projects on every continent. An admirable achievement, but for many years there was very little co-ordination or contact between projects and countries.

Now things are different and countless projects and the young people they serve are reaping the benefits of having an effective global network of grassroots sports programmes, connected to one another through Laureus summits, project exchanges, training camps, and youth focused retreats.

At the Camp Nou Stadium of FC Barcelona last year, project leaders from all 34 countries joined members of the Laureus World Sports Academy to share knowledge and ideas, undergo training and develop joint initiatives around the use of sport to improve the lives of young people. For me, it was memorable. A perfect example of the Laureus family growing and flourishing.

Laureus has invested over €1 million to develop a broad package of training in the sport for social change sector, including training in peace building through sport, crime prevention through sport, employability through sport, youth leadership through sport and tackling violence through sport. The coaches and young leaders that are trained are then able to go out and become role models in their community. In 2012 Laureus trained a total of 51 organisations worldwide.

Laureus has partnered with two organisations to develop a bespoke package of training and software support to enable projects to measure the changes they deliver to the lives of young people. In short to evaluate whether these projects are working effectively and whether donated funds are delivering maximum impact. Training to use these tools has already been delivered to 28 organisations in nine countries worldwide.

ADVOCACY

RESEARCH

Laureus is now a significant and loud voice in the sport for development world. Laureus World Sports Academy Members, by nature of their success, are able to open doors and make governments and opinion makers listen. In 2012 and 2013 we saw initiatives promoting the use of sport, taking place around the world: Laureus representatives presented research and opinion for discussion on Capitol Hill in Washington, the UK House of Commons in London and at the Laureus World Sports Awards in Rio de Janeiro.

Laureus published seven research articles in 2012 in partnership with universities and other centres of sport science excellence around the world. This comes on the back of ground-breaking Laureus-funded research reports such as the Teenage Kicks and Sport Scores which showed that community sports projects are highly cost effective when it comes to tackling community challenges and can provide governments and tax payers with significant returns.

Laureus is more than ever committed to helping young people to transform their lives through the positive power of sport, now and in the future.

There are countless examples of young people whose lives have been changed by attending a Laureus-supported programme, giving them a new direction, greater confidence and self-esteem and the chance to stay out of trouble or increase their chances of employment. This makes me, and my fellow Academy members very proud.

In this latest edition of the Laureus Magazine, you can read more about the Laureus approach and meet more of the young people whose lives have been transformed by the power of sport. I hope you enjoy it and share with me the prospect of an exciting future.

- EXCHANGE STORY -LAUREUS SPORT FOR GOOD FOUNDATION

Just months after the Laureus World Sports Awards visited Rio, some very special Sport for Good Foundation project members from the Brazilian state made a life-changing journey of their own.

Young People from the Laureus-supported Luta Pela Paz (Fight for Peace) Boxing Academy journeyed to sister project Fight for Peace in east London to learn about each other, how they both use martial arts for social good and to build even stronger links as a legacy of the London 2012 and upcoming Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

The exchange programme ran from May 27 to June 3 and saw seven Brazilian Youth Council Members aged between 16-30 visit the London academy situated in the shadow of the London Olympic Park.

One of those young people was a very talented young boxer named Wanderson. Before he arrived, 16-year-old Wanderson, or ‘Sugar’ to those who know him best, said:“I am really excited about seeing the Fight for Peace academy here in London and to meet our friends in the UK.

“It is amazing to experience the vast cultural differences between our two cities and we have learned about life in London after the Olympic Games and seen for ourselves how sport has had a positive impact on the lives of young people.”

Rugby legend Sean Fitzpatrick, Vice Chair of the Laureus World Sports Academy, said: “Sport is a great international language and this is a perfect example of that in action.

I know the guys from Rio will be having a great time meeting their counterparts in London and swapping experiences.

“I visited Fight for Peace when I was in Rio in March for the Laureus World Sports Awards and was very impressed with the work the project does and really enjoyed meeting some of the guys there.”

L aureus has welcomed two celebrated sporting Ambassadors to its family – former FC Barcelona and Real Madrid footballer Luis Figo and British tennis star Tim Henman.

Tim Henman, who dominated British tennis for more than ten years in the late 1990s and early 2000s, reached the Wimbledon semi-finals four times. He was and remains immensely popular with the Wimbledon crowd, who now watch the action on a giant TV screen from a viewing area which they have dubbed Henman Hill. He is now a respected TV analyst.

Tim said: “I am delighted to be named a Laureus Ambassador and would like to thank the members of theLaureus Academy for asking me. We all know how effective sport can be in tackling problems and bringing peopletogether. That is at the heart of the Laureus philosophy and it is what I believe too.”

Tennis legend and Laureus World Sports Academy Member Boris Becker said: “On behalf of the Laureus Academy, we are delighted to welcome Tim as a Laureus Ambassador. You only have to be anywhere near Tim at Wimbledon, or indeed anywhere in England, to know just how popular he is and the respect which he is held in British sport and in tennis around the world. He showed all the best values of sport when he played tennis and I have no doubt he will bring these qualities to his work for Laureus.”

Luis also has his own foundation, the Fundaçao Luis Figo (www.fundacaoluisfigo.pt), and he commented: “It is an honour to be a part of the Laureus Spain Foundation and work on interesting and useful projects that benefit society.”

Laureus World Sports Academy Member Martina Navratolova said: “I think it’s essential for the projects to know how they should structure themselves because now with the austerity measures in Europe and the United States what gets cut first in schools is art and athletics. So there will be even fewer opportunities for kids to really be active and to do sports so I think it’s even more essential that Laureus does this work where we become really extremely efficient and make sure that the money goes in the right direction and that the programmes are implemented correctly.”

For years most information collected from Laureus projects was limited to data around funds received and activities being delivered (for example the number of youths accessing different types of sporting and educational sessions), rather than to outcomes, measuring actual life changes taking place as a result of those activities. Infocus allows Laureus and its network of supported projects to see their impact in much more detail, including life changes created for youths and also (as shown in the chart below) the impact Laureus has on the organisations it supports, who now receive a broad package of Laureus support spanning funding, software, tools, training and knowledge exchanges such as Laureus Global Summits.

“This data is gold dust for funders as it allows us to assess the impact of our grants on the people we exist to help and to see how that impact fluctuates across countries and periods of time. Without it, we fly blind,” said Ned Wills, Global Director of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.

G rupo Desportivo e Recreativo de Manica (GDM), a football-based Laureus-supported project in Mozambique, is one of over 20 grassroots projects worldwide that is benefiting from InFocus – a ground breaking new package of software and support that helps sport for development organisations to measure their effectiveness.

Laureus created InFocus with two collaborators – Streetfootballworld and Acumen Social Technologies – to help both funders and grassroots sports programmes to track their social impact and use the information they collect to support continuous internal learning. Ultimately the aim is to help projects and their funders to understand what works, what doesn’t and why.

GDM’s Vice President Chote Chikwandingwa explains: “Just when I was about to give up on reporting to funders because of the tiresome task of retrieving data from mountains of papers, the InFocus software rescued me.”

In recent years Laureus has pioneered significant innovations in the sport for development world, none more so than the development of effective monitoring and evaluation.

GLOBAL PARTNER REPORT

BECKENBAUERIN RIO

With bright eyes, coloured balloons and a drum roll, more than 100 children from the Laureus-supported project Bola pra Frente welcomed Laureus World Sports Academy Member

Franz Beckenbauer to Rio de Janeiro on the eve of the 2013 Laureus World Sports Awards.

- 17 -

- MERCEDES-BENZ IN RIO -LAUREUS SPORT FOR GOOD FOUNDATION

A s a Global Partner, Mercedes-Benz has supported the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation since its creation in 2000 and this year Mercedes-Benz developed a special campaign, together with their brand ambassador Franz Beckenbauer, called ‘Football Boots for Rio’.

German football legend Franz made some dreams come true for the young people as he brought a group of famous friends with him, including Laureus Academy Member Boris Becker and Ambassadors Jens Lehmann, Axel Schulz, Sabine Christiansen, Ole Bischof and Michael Teuber – plus a brand new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, filled with sports equipment.

Franz Beckenbauer and legendary Brazilian footballer Carlos Alberto teamed up to present the Sprinter to the former Brazilian soccer player Jorginho, who is the Patron of Bola pra Frente. In an area of almost 12,000 square metres, Bola pra Frente is working with street children between the ages of six and 17. Soccer is used as a method to support the children. They learn important things like team-spirit, discipline, respect and strength of purpose and they finally experience recognition for their achievements and effort. This is what helps them in their daily fight against poverty, discrimination and violence.

“With the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter full of sports equipment, we have succeeded in making the kids of Bola pra Frente smile and have made them happy. I want to thank everyone that made this project happen,” said a happy Franz about the incredible support he had received.Together with Global Partner Mercedes-Benz, Franz had asked all Germans to donate their old football boots. It was their target to fill the complete Sprinter with used shoes by the time of the Laureus World Sports Awards.

The response was overwhelming: children and parents, old and young football players, as well as stars and football professionals sent in their shoes. Even whole sport clubs were supporting the project as a team. Over 1,300 pairs of football boots were sent to Mercedes-Benz and at the end they were able to fill up the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. They reached their goal and the boots were exchanged for brand new sports equipment which was given to the project.

That is why Franz Beckenbauer was delighted to fulfil his promise: he personally handed over the Sprinter to Bola pra Frente and achieved his personal goal to make the children smile. Franz said: “All the people of Germany that donated their old football boots made this generous present possible. I thank them.”

The Laureus Awards are the premier honours on the international sporting calendar. Proceeds directly benefit and underpin the work of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation. The winners are chosen by the Laureus World Sports Academy, the ultimate sports jury, made up of

46 of the greatest living sportsmen and sportswomen.

The crowd were lined several deep in the Praça Floriano and their loud roars announced the arrival of someone special. All evening the noise from the sports-mad aficionados outside the Laureus World Sports Awards had waxed and waned as more than 100 of the most famous sportsmen and women in the world had walked the red carpet outside the Theatro Municipal in Rio de Janeiro

But this was Brazil, where football is king. And this was Neymar. The brilliant 21-year-old, then playing for Santos, waved and thanked the onlookers as he headed for the auditorium.

His appearance was one of the highlights of a scintillating Laureus World Sports Awards, however on this occasion he was not a winner as the Laureus World Breakthrough of the Year Award went to Andy Murray, not him, after the British tennis player won an Olympic gold medal and the US Open Grand Slam.

Two months later Neymar received his prize with a transfer for a reported €50 million-plus fee to FC Barcelona and now he will weave his magic on a European stage. But on this warm Rio evening, Neymar was the property of the Brazilian fans and how they loved him.

Bolt said: “This is one of the greatest honours. I worked hard over the years to win this a third time. It’s like winning a gold medal”

The Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year Award went to Jessica Ennis, who carried the hopes of the British nation in London. Despite the enormous pressure of being one of the first on the track, she dominated the heptathlon and won the gold medal.

There was a warm welcome from the audience in the Theatro Municipal in Rio de Janeiro for two outstanding Olympians who received special Laureus Awards.

Legendary swimmer Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time with a career total of 22 medals, including 18 gold medals, eight of which he won in one Olympiad in Beijing, was presented with a new Award – the Laureus Academy Exceptional Achievement Award.

And Laureus World Sports Academy Member Sebastian Coe, the Chairman of the Organising Committee of the highly successful London Olympic and Paralympic Games, received the Laureus Lifetime Achievement Award. Coe said: “Thank you very much to the Academy. This is an extraordinary honour. We all have that unshakeable belief that sport can, and does, transform lives. So I very openly share this with them, because it is the ethos that we all share in this Academy.

MICHAEL PHELPSenjoying every minute of ROCINHA t was a long way for Michael Phelps from the pristine

stadium pools surrounded by cheering spectators, where he became the most decorated Olympian in history, to the sprawl of a favela in Rio de Janeiro. But there was really no doubt that, having met some remarkable young sports lovers there, it was just as inspiring an experience.

Michael, who won 22 Olympic medals in his career, including 18 gold medals, enjoyed every minute of his visit to Rocinha, on the eve of the Laureus World Sports Awards, though it must have been one of the most unusual settings he had ever swum in.

Complexo Esportivo da Rocinha (Rocinha Sports Centre), which was established in December 2010, is part of the Rio 2016 Olympic Development Programme. It currently benefits 4,500 people and offers 17 different sports, plus providing social and health services for the community.

It does great things each day for the young people of the area, but when it was opened no one ever imagined the great Michael Phelps would be giving swimming lessons there one day.

As he joined a large group of youngsters in the pool, Michael said: “Coming to the Laureus World Sports Awards has given me a great opportunity to visit Rocinha and get a feel for what is going on here. I enjoyed meeting some of the kids and I really feel sport is making a difference here.”

He talked to some of the youngsters about the basic principles of his Olympic success – Dream, Plan, Reach.

At the Laureus Awards Ceremony Michael was presented with a new Award – the Laureus Academy Exceptional Achievement Award. He said: “This is all a dream come true for me. I woke up with a dream as a kid to be the best that I could be and to be able to win this Award is amazing. To have the members of the Academy vote for this and give me this, I’m really at a loss for words.”

“It has been an amazing career and it is crazy to think that it is over. But I’ve done everything that I wanted to do in the sport. I wanted to change swimming and take it to another level, and I have. But I will continue to be a part of the sport and continue to help grow the sport of swimming. That is a goal of mine and a passion of mine.”

were announcing a new programme to tap the leadership potential of elite female athletes and Olympians after their retirement from competitive sport.

An attentive listener in the audience was Sarah Attar, one of the first Saudi women to compete in the Olympics, who finished last in the 800 metres but was given a warm reception by the London crowd. Martina Navratilova said: “Any time somebody does something for the first time, they’re a pioneer. There will be a Saudi woman that wins an Olympic gold one day and this was that first step towards that.”

THE BIGGEST NAMES

ON THE BIGGEST STAGE IN RIO

The presentations of the Laureus Awards celebrated the great sporting performances of the year, but the event also hosted ground- breaking discussions on many of the burning issues in sport, including the role of women, the Olympic legacy and the illegal use of drugs.

The cast list for these events was exceptional, none more so than the Women in Sport symposium. No fewer than four Laureus Academy Members, Nadia Comaneci, Cathy Freeman, Tanni Grey-Thompson and Martina Navratilova, took part. They were joined by Olympic medallist Donna De Varona, Sue Campbell, Chairman of UK Sport, and Beth Brooke, Global Vice Chair of Ernst & Young, who

Martina added: “There are so many cultural barriers to still overcome. On the professional level, it’s much, much better. London really was the Olympics of the women. They were the faces, they were the driving force. I’m excited about that because girls can have women to look up to as their role models, they don’t have to look to men as their role models.”

Just hours earlier the person responsible for staging those London Olympics, Sebastian Coe, had shared a platform with Carlos Nuzman, President of the Organising Committee for the 2016 Summer Olympics to be hosted by Rio: the two most influential men in the Olympic Games, past and present, brought together by Laureus to discuss Olympic legacy.

Laureus Academy Member Lord Coe, one of Britain’s greatest Olympic athletes, used the occasion to confirm the importance of sport in the education and overall development of young people. He told how the London Olympics had inspired boys and girls throughout the United Kingdom.

Coe emphasised the synergy between Laureus and the Olympic movement to emphasise the impact both organisations can have on young lives. “Every opportunity that we have to encourage young people to take up sport is really important. The excitement generated by a really good Games is the platform on which you build.”

Carlos Nuzman said: “I would like to thank members of the Laureus family for being in Rio de Janeiro for this event. The awarding of the Olympic and Paralympic Games to Rio de Janeiro symbolises the understanding by the world of the transformation sport can make possible. And this city will serve as an example for other regions of the world.”

Although the Awards Ceremony was held in Rio for the first time in 2013, the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation has been working there since 2003 and during the weekend many Laureus Academy Members took the opportunity to connect to the community while they were in the city.

New Zealand rugby legend Sean Fitzpatrick, Vice Chair of the Laureus World Sports Academy, had Brazilian youngsters dancing and chanting with delight as he brought the ‘haka’ to the Luta Pela Paz community project supported by the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.

In the next major event, the topic switched from the positive benefits of sporting legacy to a problem that sometimes seems insoluble - the illegal use of performance enhancing drugs. Edwin Moses, Chairman of the Laureus World Sports Academy and Chairman of the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) and Travis Tygart, Chief Executive of USADA, joined Laureus Academy Member Steve Redgrave and Marco Aurelio Klein, the head of Brazilian AntiDoping, for the discussion.

Coming in the aftermath of the USADA report on retired cyclist Lance Armstrong which resulted in him being given a ban from the sport and having his Tour de France titles withdrawn, the conclusion was that progress is being made but there is still a long way to go.

Another of the highlights of the weekend was a football debate involving World Cup stars Franz Beckenbauer, Bobby Charlton and Vicente del Bosque, manager of the current world champions Spain. Their discussion covered a variety of topics including the forthcoming World Cup in Rio de Janeiro in 2014. Beckenbauer and Charlton fondly recalled the 1966 World Cup Final when they played against each other.

Rarely has the haka, an ancestral Maori greeting made famous by the All Blacks rugby team, been performed in more unusual surroundings than the courtyard of Luta Pela Paz, a boxing and martial arts gymnasium in Complexo da Maré situated far from the bright lights of downtown Rio.

Luta Pela Paz (Fight for Peace) has proved an overwhelming success in transforming the lives of youngsters living in a community blighted by crime, violence and drug abuse. Sean said: “It has been wonderful to experience at first hand what is going on here. What Fight for Peace is doing is tremendous and for Laureus to be involved in that, in helping to change lives, is what we’re all about. I’ve been inspired by what I’ve seen.”

And Steve Redgrave, the legendary British rower who won five gold medals at five successive Olympiads, joined up with members of the local Botafogo rowing club in a coxless fours on Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas, the lake that will host the 2016 Olympic rowing.

After being warmly applauded by 50 Botafogo rowers upon arriving at their clubhouse, Redgrave said: “It is a marvellous setting, It is very rare that rowing gets to compete in the middle of a city. Spectators and rowers are going to love it.”

Two new Laureus Ambassadors were named in Rio de Janeiro - Spanish national football team manager Vicente del Bosque and Chinese badminton superstar Lin Dan.

It serves as a reminder that part of the proceeds resulting from the sale of the watch go to help needy children all over the world. Hakkini from Sri Lanka had entered the children’s drawing competition, held annually by IWC Schaffhausen at Laureus Foundation projects around the world.

“The Laureus Sport for Good Foundation is a cause dear to our hearts, because its sports projects open prospects for young people all over the globe,” added Georges Kern.

orporate social responsibility is about more than writing cheques. It is about life and existence for thousands of kids and young people in need, all over the world, for whom our commitment makes a big difference.

As a Global Partner of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, IWC Schaffhausen promotes this concept through its own activities. “As a successful global business in the luxury goods sector, it is second nature to us to accept our social responsibility and support people who have to overcome the most difficult circumstances in life,” explained IWC Schaffhausen CEO Georges Kern.

During the Laureus World Sports Awards held in Rio de Janeiro in March this year, IWC Schaffhausen demonstrated its commitment by releasing a limited edition watch in aid of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.

The Swiss manufacturer recreated a watchmaking legend, the Portuguese Yacht Club Chronograph, available in a ‘Laureus Sport for Good Foundation’ limited edition of 1,000 pieces, resplendent in the distinctive Laureus blue. A particular highlight is a poignant engraving on the back of the timepiece, based on a drawing by 12-year-old Hakkini Hasanga Sandumal De Silva.

During the Laureus World Sports Awards, IWC Schaffhausen invited key journalists to visit the Complexo Esportivo da Rocinha, situated in a large favela in Rio de Janeiro. The Sports Centre currently benefits 4,500 people and offers 17 different sports, plus providing social and health services.

In the presence of Laureus Award Winner Michael Phelps and many other Laureus World Sports Academy Members, IWC’s guests witnessed how sport is making a difference amidst poverty and difficult living conditions. The result of this project visit reflected in an overwhelming media response bringing greater visibility to the cause of Laureus in Brazil.

Another great opportunity to support the Laureus recipe for success was given during the Laureus Polo Cup, when some of the world’s best polo players met at the historic Guards Polo Club in Windsor. IWC Schaffhausen donated a Portofino Chronograph Edition ‘Laureus Sport for Good Foundation watch’ was auctioned to raise funds for the Fundación Laureus Argentina. At the end of the day the children were the winners when more than £5,500 had been raised from the auction for their sports projects.

‘It’s great TO SEE THAT THEY ARE DEVELOPING INTO OTHER CITIES OVER THE NEXT YEARS AND THAT LAUREUS ARE SUPPORTING THEM IN THIS’ANDRÉ VILLAS-BOAS

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR HEAD COACH

Just a few months into 2013 and the Foundation had already welcomed a host of exciting new names into the family as Ambassadors all dedicated to championing the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation message.

One of these names was Tottenham Hotspur Head Coach André Villas-Boas, who visited the Laureus-supported Street League project at one of their London bases in Kings Cross in May. There he led a special training session for the project members, even running some of his Spurs team’s favourite training exercises in the process.

But like all Laureus-supported charity projects, it’s not about the sport alone. The eight-week Street League Academy programme, which is supported by the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, delivers employability and life skills training, with three out of every four graduates going on to get a job or return to education.

André took time to chat with the participants, aged 16 to 24, about what it means to be a great leader, and also to find out more about how they are bettering their lives through Street League at a time of such high youth unemployment.

One of those young people was Clark, who completed the Street League training last year. Having graduated from the project, Clark’s life has changed beyond recognition from what it was before he joined.

Recalling life before he discovered Street League, he told Laureus: “Toward the end of my time at school I started bunking, I was hanging out with the wrong crowd. Things at home weren’t good. I could see my mum was not happy with the way I was.”

Then Clark found out about Street League during his search for work having left school. Now, thanks to the opportunities given to him at the project and the help he received in building up his own CV, he has secured a position working at a top London law firm. Now he has his eyes set firmly on the future. And having worked for a year now in and around lawyers, the profession is really sparking his interest.

“I’m looking into para-legal stuff… I’m really interested in that and my supervisor is so supportive. I’m around good people,” he said.

It’s a remarkable turn-around for the young man from north London. But it is also one that Laureus and Street League are helping bring about more and more often. As André said: “The numbers are absolutely staggering - 76% of the graduates go on to further education training or directly into employment.

“To be able to pick up kids from prisons, job centres, people that are in the most difficult situations that want that breakthrough moment in their life but for some reason or the other they can’t get it. … it’s great to see that Street League are developing into other cities over the next years and that Laureus are supporting them in this.”

- MICHAEL VAUGHAN -LAUREUS SPORT FOR GOOD FOUNDATION

The New Year kicked off to a great start as Ashes winning cricket captain Michael Vaughan announced he would be setting off on a UK-wide bike ride to raise funds for the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation. The Laureus Ambassador, who famously inspired England to their memorable 2005 Ashes victory, revealed he will be leading a team of charity fund-raisers on a 12-day tour of England cricket grounds to coincide with the One Day International series against Australia from September 6–17. The ride will also benefit the Cricket Foundation’s Chance to Shine initiative, which promotes cricket across the UK.

Starting with the first One Day International at Headingley in Leeds, Vaughan’s peloton will route via Old Trafford in Manchester, Edgbaston in Birmingham, the Swalec Stadium in Cardiff and the Ageas Bowl in Southampton before finishing in London.

Vaughan said: “This is going to be a serious challenge, but I am really looking forward to it. I’ll be cycling 462 miles over the 12 days and that is not going to be easy, but these are two really good causes.”

Michael launched his cycle ride at Lord’s, the Home of Cricket, where he was supported by current England women’s cricket stars Lydia Greenway and Susie Rowe. But the Laureus Ambassador is also recruiting star names to join him on the ride, including Olympic cycling great Victoria Pendleton, British tennis star Tim Henman, England footballer Jamie Redknapp and former England cricketers Phil Tufnell and Andrew Strauss. But he doesn’t want to stop there.

Head to #ChancetoRide for more details on what will be a truly unforgettable cycle experience.

BEST IN THE

TURN OUT FOR LAUREUSWORLD

aureus Ambassador Adolfo Cambiaso, the No 1 player in the world, lead an exceptional group of international stars including Pablo MacDonough, Juan Martin Nero and David Stirling in the highly successful Laureus Polo Cup, at the historic Guards Polo Club, Windsor, in June. The event raised €100,000 for the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation Argentina.

Also present as a spectator was polo great Eduardo Heguy, a Laureus Ambassador, who played a key role in creating the event. He said: “To be able to give back to children through sport is an incredible opportunity. The possibility of raising funds in the UK makes a big difference back home in Argentina and we have been able to expand different projects which we fund.”

Cheering the polo players on was a celebrity audience which included members of the Laureus World Sports Academy, including Chairman Edwin Moses, tennis legend Boris Becker, England cricket hero Ian Botham and rugby giants Sean Fitzpatrick, the former All Blacks captain, and Hugo Porta, Argentina’s greatest player who is President of the Fundación Laureus Argentina.

In a spirited and close contest, the victors were a team representing Mercedes-AMG, the performance brand of Mercedes-Benz, who won 5 ½ - 4 against a team sponsored by IWC Schaffhausen. The teams were: IWC Schaffhausen - 1. Sheikha Maitha Al Maktoum, 2. Shilai Liu, 3. Adolfo Cambiaso, 4. Pablo MacDonough. ; Mercedes-AMG - 1. Mohammed Al Habtoor, 2. Jonathan Munro Ford, 3. David Stirling, 4. Juan Martin Nero.

The Fundación Laureus Argentina was founded in May 2003 by Hugo Porta. The headquarters are in Buenos Aires with the Foundation’s work extending to distant Argentine provinces that greatly benefit from its backing. Currently, the Foundation supports six projects: Unión y Amistad de San Isidro, Club Deportivo Barracas, A Ganar, Club Platense, Fundacion El Desafio and Virreyes Hockey.

‘ BY STAGING THIS RACE WE ALSO HOPE TO LET PEOPLE KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT LAUREUS IS DOING IN SOUTH AFRICA’MIKA HÄKKINEN

LAUREUS ACADEMY MEMBER

He’s a two-time Formula One World Champion. He stands in the baking sun of South Africa, blindfolded, on a Segway. It must seem like a long way from Kyalami or Silverstone. The man is Laureus Academy Member Mika Häkkinen and he was in this unusual position in June as he took part in the Laureus ‘Amazing Race’ through the streets of Durban.

The event was put on with the support of Mercedes-Benz in South Africa, and featured 35 cars with teams of 4 per car. Several of the cars contained leaders from the Laureus YES programme (Youth Empowerment through Sports), a remarkable leadership training programme that enjoyed its second year in 2013. Starting at the Mercedes-Benz dealership in Umhlanga, the race went through Durban in several stages, stopping at the end of each leg where a challenge or task was given to each team before they were given clues for the next destination.

Talking after the event, Mika made it clear the altogether unusual Segway challenge had a very real purpose. He said: “You can’t see where you are going and your team members have to help and guide you around the track. Left and right. It helps teach trust between all of the team. It was fascinating.”This Segway experience is just an example of the exercises the YES programme teaches young people to help improve their life skills and even employment opportunities.

Asked about the young YES leaders he met, Mika said: “They’re smart, eager to challenge themselves in the future, and eager to listen, which is so important. They want to succeed and are so happy to be a part of Laureus to achieve this. These young leaders are unsung heroes for the work they do in their communities. By staging this race we also hope to let people know more about what Laureus is doing in South Africa.”

ON A STORY WORTH TELLINGnemov

- KEY NOTE SPEECH IN SOCHI -LAUREUS SPORT FOR GOOD FOUNDATION

Alexey Nemov may be more familiar with the Olympic medal podium than the speaker’s podium, but that did not stop the Laureus World Sports Academy Member from delivering a much appreciated key note speech in April to the 76th AIPS Congress in Sochi, host city for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games.

Alexey, one of the most popular gymnasts of all time, who won 12 Olympic medals including four gold, was the special guest speaker at the Congress of the International Sports Journalists Association (AIPS).

Laureus is the official charity partner of the AIPS and many prominent international and Russian sports journalists were present to hear Alexey’s speech, for which he received a commemorative award. In his comments, he said: “I am very excited to be in Sochi where in 2014 we will have what I know will be a wonderful Winter Olympic Games.

“Since I have become a Laureus Academy Member, I have been on several visits to projects where we are helping young people. I always find it very inspiring. When you walk into a room full of kids, coaches, teachers, parents, and often the wider community, it is very exciting. I would like to thank all the members of the AIPS who every year tell the story of what Laureus is doing around the world to help young people.”

Alexey is an enthusiastic supporter of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation and three months earlier had visited a Moscow-based Laureus-supported project along with newest Laureus Ambassadors, Olympic gold medal winning synchronised swimmers Elvira Khasyanova, Daria Korobova and Anzhelika Timanina.
