Regular fully-funded football sessions have been established across Sussex for after school, evenings, Saturday mornings and during the school holidays. These provide young people the opportunity to participate in regular physical exercise and learn new skills.
In addition to the football skills learned by the young people the scheme works to:
promote valuable life skills such as teamwork, respect and discipline;
promote community involvement;
highlight the dangers of smoking, drug's misuse including alcohol;
promote the benefits of regular exercise and healthy diet.
The project also works with young adults in target areas, by giving them the opportunity to gain accreditation on the Level 1 Certificate in Football Coaching. This in turn provides coaching employment opportunities within the Community Scheme.
