★ A Talent Sponsorship Programme by Junkbot

We find talent.
We fuel it.

Junkbot Rising continuously discovers exceptional young athletes, innovators, creators and scholars — and sponsors what they need to go further: kit, fees, training, technology and a community that believes in them.

Who We Sponsor

Talent is everywhere. Support isn't.

We look for young people aged 8–21 with extraordinary drive and real potential — whose next step is blocked only by resources. Then we remove the block.

⚽

Athletes

Footballers, swimmers, racers — kit, academy fees, tournament travel and visibility.

🤖

Young Innovators

Robotics builders, coders and inventors — components, competition entries and mentorship at our DO IT Lab.

🎨

Creators

Artists, filmmakers, storytellers — tools, platforms and their first professional showcase.

🧠

Scholars

Exceptional students — course fees, learning resources and free access to MissionX.

How It Works

Three steps. No forms that go nowhere.

1

Nominate

Anyone can nominate — a parent, a coach, a teacher, or the talent themselves. Tell us who they are, what they've done, and what's blocking their next step.

2

We Meet Them

Our team reviews every nomination personally and meets shortlisted talents and their families. We look for drive and potential — not polish or connections.

3

We Sponsor

Selected talents receive tailored sponsorship — funding, equipment, training or platform access — plus the Junkbot Rising badge and our network behind them.

Our Talents

It started with one footballer.

Junkbot Rising began when we sponsored a young football talent — and realised how many more brilliant young people are one sponsor away from their breakthrough.

→Full sponsorship — kit, fees and tournament support
→A public platform — we tell their story as they rise
→Long-term backing — we stay with our talents as they grow
