Abstract
The Sport Development Project (SDP) was a comprehensive youth strategy for sport in the Northern Territory aimed at diversion from 'at-risk' behaviours, improvement of life choices and outcomes, and strengthening youth service infrastructure through engagement in positive (sport) activities. There were five Remote Service Delivery sites that were involved in the trial of this 'best practice' model for delivering sport-focused diversion activities. These include: Gapuwiyak, Wadeye, Yuendumu, Gunbalunya and Nguiu. Work Profile: Given the budgetary and time constraints, this evaluation was essentially a scoping exercise which aimed to present some emerging findings, allude to the relative value of the program and propose future embedded evaluations.
