ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This project explores the work of a Sport for Development Programme (SDP), it endeavours to attain gender equality, and the possibility of using sport as a tool for social change. It delves into the organisation’s attempt to achieve these aims through the perspectives and perceptions of the 12 participants involved in the programme. This study used a qualitative approach, utilising participant observation, focus group interviews, and semi-structured interviews. Through engaging with the relevant sociological literature, the findings suggest that social and cultural reproduction regarding gender has a major influence on achieving gender equality, especially in the sporting sphere. The study reveals that further education within Sport for Development programmes could assist in the successful implementation of gender conversations and gender equality. These conversations could further assist in tackling the stereotypical gender norms which stem from society and become associated with sporting performance. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die werk van ‘n Sport vir Ontwikkelingsprogram (SOP), sy pogings om gender gelykheid te bereik, en die moontlikheid om sport as ‘n gereedskap vir sosiale verandering te gebruik. Dit delf in die organisasie se poging om hierdie doelwitte te bereik deur die perspektiewe en persepsies van die 12 deelnemers wat by die program betrokke is. Deur ondersoek en inskakeling by die relevante Sosiologiese literarutuur dui die bevindinge daarop dat sosiale en kulturele reproduksie met betrekking tot ghender ‘n groot invloed het op die bereiking van gender gelykheid, veral in die sport wêreld. Tydens die studie is dit egter aan die lig gebring dat verdere opvoeding binne Sport vir Ontwikkeling programme kan help met die suksesvolle implementering van gender gesprekke en gender gelykheid. Hierdie gesprekke kan verder help om die stereotipiese gender norme wat met sport en sosiale lewe geassosieer word, wat uit die samelewing voortspruit, aan te pak.
