At DC Community Training, we are passionate about creating opportunities, driving positive change, and building a brighter future for our community. That’s why we are thrilled to announce an exciting new partnership with Yoker Athletic Football Club—a collaboration that embodies the true spirit of community partnership.
This partnership represents more than just two organizations coming together. It’s about shared values, a commitment to people, and the belief that by working together, we can make a meaningful difference.
Why This Partnership Matters
Yoker Athletic FC, with its proud history and strong local roots, has been a cornerstone of community life for generations. Their dedication to fostering talent and bringing people together through the love of football mirrors our own mission at DC Community Training: empowering individuals to reach their full potential through education, skills development, and support.
By teaming up, we’re combining the power of sport and social enterprise to address challenges in our community, from tackling unemployment to promoting health and wellbeing. Together, we’re building pathways to opportunity and inclusion for people of all ages and backgrounds.
What This Partnership Will Achieve
This partnership will allow us to amplify the impact of our programs and create new opportunities for local residents. Here’s a glimpse of what’s ahead:
- Skill-Building Programs: Using the facilities and network of Yoker Athletic FC, we will run training programs to help individuals gain practical skills, certifications, and confidence to thrive in employment or further education.
- Youth Development Initiatives: Through mentorship and sports-based activities, we’ll engage young people, building life skills like teamwork, resilience, and leadership.
- Community Events: From tournaments to open days, we’ll host events that bring people together, celebrate diversity, and foster a sense of belonging.
- Health and Wellbeing Focus: Leveraging the power of sport, we aim to inspire healthy habits, both physical and mental, across the community.

This collaboration is special because it’s rooted in shared values: a belief in the power of community, a dedication to creating opportunities, and a passion for making a difference. Yoker Athletic FC isn’t just a football club—they are a hub for connection, growth, and inspiration.
