The British Bangladeshi Sports Association
Utilising sport as a means to promote social inclusion
and produce better health outcomes for our community
Promoting Social Inclusion
We will be using the power of sport to foster and develop greater social inclusion.
We recognise that sport helps to develop friendships, respect and tolerance, enabling communities to mix and have a greater understanding of one another.
Promoting Community Inclusion
We are eager for our whole community to benefit from the advantages of sport, both physical and mental.
We will be encouraging all members of the community to engage in sport and to create new friendships in a way that is appropriate to our customs and religious beliefs.
Promoting Health
We will use the enjoyment and fun elements of sport to improve the health of our community. We are very focused on the need to utilize sport to improve both physical and mental health.
We are mindful of the health benefits such as preventing cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Establishing Community Role Models
We will identify existing and new role models to inspire our community. With the support of role models such as Hamza Choudhury, Premier League Footballer for Leicester City, we will inspire others to live up to the sporting ideals of; Fair Play, Courtesy, Excellence, Friendship and Respect.
Promoting Excellence
Our yearly awards ceremony will champion and showcase all levels of sport within our community.
We are eager to recognise excellence and commitment from those behind the scenes, to coaching, to performance on the field of play.
In addition, we will be recognising the sporting trailblazers in our community who have been working hard to bring the benefits of sport to the community.
