About Us

West Yorkshire Sport (WYSport) is the County Sports Partnership (CSP) for five districts of West Yorkshire; Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield. The West Yorkshire Sport Jobs and vacancies pages list a variety of jobs across the three major cities and towns including Dewsbury, Batley, Huddersfield and Halifax. We promote grassroots Yorkshire sport with news, events, activities, calendars and deliver major projects for national partners like Sport England such as Sportivate activity, Sport Makers, the Olympic inspired School Games and coach education as well as promoting participation in sport and physical activity.

The Year Ahead

2012 is an exciting year for sport with athletes heading down to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games such as wheelchair racing star Calderdale's Hanna Cockroft who will carry the Olympic Torch through Leeds. This Olympic year also sees the launch of the School Games as part of Places People Play, the National Olympic legacy programme, and WYSport is looking forward to delivering the 2012 School Games and Paragames to the county's schools through the School games Organiser SGO network. Safeguarding children in Sport is massively important, and we have attained the gold standard for our child protection. The West Yorkshire sports partnership is the wider network of education, health and leisure organisations tasked with making sport and physical activity part of our lives.
