At the Bakhtar Community Organisation, we believe in the transformative power of sports and health initiatives to promote physical well-being and social connection within our community. Our programs encourage participation in various sports activities, fostering teamwork, resilience, and healthy lifestyles among individuals of all ages. We offer a range of activities, from meditation classes and to wellness workshops that focus on mental health, cancer, diabetes, hepatitis, healthy eating and overall well-being. By creating opportunities for community members to engage in physical activities, we not only enhance their health but also strengthen social bonds, build confidence, and promote inclusivity. Through our sports and health initiatives, we aim to inspire a healthier, more active community where everyone can thrive.
Our current sport programs:

Welcoming children from diverse backgrounds, the program promotes fitness, confidence, and lasting friendships, creating a supportive environment where every participant feels valued.
- Bakhtar Girls Bike Team – The Bakhtar Girls Bike Team empowers young girls to embrace cycling as a fun and healthy activity.
