Calderdale College has linked up with the award-winning not-for-profit youth organisation, Unique Community Hub, to give hundreds more children and young people in the local area access to life-changing sport, culture, art and education opportunities.
The Inspire Centre, based at Calderdale College will now become the new home for the Hub, providing state-of-the-art sporting and social facilities for weekly activity camps, events and healthy holiday clubs aimed at children aged 11-18.
About Unique Community Hub
Unique Community Hub was formed in 2018 by founders Yasar Mohammed and former Calderdale College student, Mohammed Ozair, to get young people from the Park Ward out of gangs and crime, and into sports and exercise.
Co-founder Yasar, explains: “We set up Unique Community Hub to enrich the lives of young people in our area by hosting sports activities for them. It took off, and we’ve now got a team of 12 volunteers, running up to six activity sessions for 250 kids a week – everything from football and boxing, to rounders and running clubs.”

With such a talented array of coaches TAGS certainly offers a broad programme of high-quality coaching and opportunities to progress into sports specific pathways. With all highly qualified staff DBS checked, safeguarding and 1st Aid trained children get the chance to have FUN and flourish in this high quality environment.
Athletes are coached and analysed by up to twelve professional bodies per camp, from different pathway sports, with the purpose of finding new talent. Halifax RLFC, Panthers Cheerleading, Bradford Dragons, The Cricket Asylum, Brighouse Town FC, Brighouse Ladies FC, Calderdale Netball, Halifax Sport Karate and many others are a few of the amazing partners we have had delivering on the Halifax Camps.
Every athlete also undertakes the TAGS Tests to find out how fast, supple, balanced, agile, powerful and fit they are. All athletes and parents will be sent their “personalised profile” post camp. This can be shared with club coaches, school teachers and even compared with friends to see how good you really are! (We will not share your child’s information with ANYONE without your express permission).
There is also Dodgeball, Endball competitions, Olympic Days, World Cup tournaments, penalty shoot-outs and plenty of other activities for FUN and engagement.
