About Us:
BYL has previously created a team in the Sunday League about 14 years ago but due to other commitments for the members, the team disappeared. 3 members from the Bangladesh Youth League, Shakul Ali, Rana Miah and Ahbab Koyes realised the need for another team, what it would accomplish using football.
The project has been running since 5th October 2008. The project in essence is quite simple. We hoped to establish a Sunday League Football team, consisting of young people from within the local community. We believe that sport is in fact is an excellent way to engage young people, whilst providing enjoyment and exercise. Our project hopes to really bite into this ideology by bringing together young people from different faiths, backgrounds and races, and allowing them to share a common interest. Clearly conflict often presents as a result of difference between people. Our team hopes to provide a common ground and use this commonality as a basis from which we can encourage young people to engage in discussion about issues that affect them. Playing in a team itself provides invaluable learning experience for young people. It promotes teamwork, and more importantly what to do if team dynamics break down.
