The Challenge
How do we prove to people that the best and easiest way to begin at any sport is just by playing?
What we did
During the Phase 2 heightened alert measures in 2021, about 70% of Singaporeans felt like they have put sporting activities on hold. In response to these findings and staying true to its mission of making sports more accessible for all, Decathlon has created a series of products to show Singaporeans how easy it is to ‘Just Start Playing’.”
To prove to people that starting a new sport is as easy as playing it and that you have all you need to start playing at home. We create a new special product line with products made up of everyday household items that can help you get acquainted with a new sport. Reminding people that they don’t need fancy equipment to get into a new sport—all they have to do is play.
