The Development of Communities in Cayman through Sports

The Development of Communities in Cayman through Sports

Whether the tune is “take me out to the ball game”, or “ole, ole, ole, ole”, sports unite people from different social backgrounds and are an important factor in the development of communities.

Observed through the benefits they provide, the impact that sports have on a community include extra-curricular and social activities, improved health and wellbeing, national and international representation, and valuable life skills, among others

As an investor in local communities, Dart’s purpose aligns with the vital role that sports play in the Cayman Islands and in youth development.

Through sponsorships, donations and development, we use these investment tools to provide opportunities for people to learn, practice, compete and enjoy sports.
