Samir Yousuf
Director of Athletics Academy
In 2015, a group of passionate individuals came together to create a children's athletics firm with a mission to instil a sports-loving ethos and promote physical activity and life skills education among children. They recognised the declining activity levels and rising sedentary behaviours among kids and aimed to encourage an active lifestyle through diverse sports programs. This initiative not only offers numerous benefits for children but also for the wider community, enabling young ones to develop motor skills, coordination, cardiovascular health, teamwork, discipline, resilience, and more. By launching this company, they have shown a commitment to holistic youth development, aiming to create a generation that values fitness, fair play, and well-being, benefiting both the children and the community at large.
