Summary

We run a local kids football team for kids born in 2017,

Description

We are a club who welcomes every child who has an interest in learning football, we welcome them into a safe environment with syfa qualified coaches to learn about playing football. We train twice a week and play a game in a local league every Sunday as well as getting the team to festivals. Our team is for all kids born in 2017, each parent / guardian pays a monthly fee of £20 which covers there child's insurance, pitch fees/ hire. We supply every child with a game day kit which costs £22 plus a further £15 for a 1/4 zip jacket. We also have to supply all our own equipment, as our team will go to play 7 asidesn next year we have to supply new balls in the next size up. This will come at a cost of £200 for 20 balls, that's barely one for each child. There is also other equipment such has hurdles, training ladders and cones we need to add to our existing equipment. We try to keep the cost down by supplying kits etc for the kids without parents having to worry about it.

Costings - 

Strips per child - £37 - £666

New footballs - £75 per 10 balls x 2 = £150 

Training equipment - £200 

Total £1018

How have young people been involved in shaping this project?

In our team we have kids with autism, ADHD and anger issues, by getting them involved in exercise and becoming part of a team and feeling that there in a safe space has been a turning point for them. They look forward to getting to training and games every week, seeing there friends or getting peace from siblings with additional needs. Once the kids get that wee strip on, they have that sense of teamwork and belonging.
