The vision of the Yorkshire Cycling Academy is to create opportunities for the local youngsters and also those from the surrounding areas. The Academy has a hands on approach and those that show promise will be guided and given the necessary support, where possible, to take them to the next level of competition. It is also the objective of the Academy to develop the talented riders to successfully compete at international level. The Academy faces numerous financial challenges supporting these youngsters as most of them come from households of poor economic circumstances.
