Unity Sporting Club uses football as a simple but effective tool to engage a large pool of street children on a regular basis who traditionally have little access to sporting activities. The Academy then aims to develop childrens ability to be coached, both on and off the football pitch, with the aim of empowering them through a programme of non-formal education which is complemented by a fun and goal orientated reward

In the shortest time the club has achieve many beneficial things for the community, such as the introduction of an annual football tournament which gives local youngsters in a clubs around the area to participate against each other and the winning team playing in a grand finale against Unity Academy teams.

The Board and Management committee has approved a proposal from the Development Officer for the club to compete in a professional football.

The club will start play professional football in the Second Division of the Ghana national league 2010/2011. This is a big step, and will also open way for the youth team to break into professional from through their own club. This will in no doubt only increase and promote healthy competition in the Ghana National League.

The committee is working 24 hours around the clock for this to be a reality in the 2010/2011 season.

Unity Academy is a Centre of Sporting Excellence run by Unity Sporting Club in association with UCSEF. The academy has a computer centre powered by Enterprise FI Solution. Aimed at disadvantaged children and young people, particularly orphans and victims of HIV/AIDS. The centre is based in Wenchi in the Brong Ahafo, a deprived area of Brong Ahafo region, Ghana. 100 boys aged 3-21 years, are currently enrolled. The academy coaches provide free training session at a local girls school, this is the only way we can currently include girls in the project as very few girls have shown interest.

The Academy offers full scholarships to those at risk of poverty and hardship. Through holistic sports and education programmes, the School is creating sustainable opportunities for students, investing in their future success as independent individuals and building inspiring stories to lift their peers out of poverty. Many Unity Academy students have excellent sporting potential and share a belief in the power of sport to effect change. However, entry to the School is not exclusive to those with exceptional sporting talent - the primary criterion for entry is social need.

UNITY ACADEMY is pioneering in its approach to pastoral care through sport, working collectively with local and international organisations to attain the overall objective of better welfare for local children. The Academy is in partnership with local nursery, primary and secondary schools such as St. Augustine Catholic School and Koase Secondary School. The Academy is in partnership with local businesses to apprenticeship for those who are not academically talented to learn trade which will better their survival chance in their communities.

A Long side the academic modules, the coaching sessions combines a traditional teaching syllabus with high class sports programmes as well as essential life skills training on issues such as alcohol abuse and sexual health. Coaching is delivered to students by trained local coaches. This highlights how UNITY ACADEMY benefits the community on a number of levels, training students, employing local people and providing access to sports facilities for the wider community. UNITY ACADEMY also invites overseas coaches to support sports training, offering an invaluable opportunity for cultural exchange.
