Football Team

This service is perfect for the footy mad among our members! We have two football teams who train weekly throughout the season and compete in the BOBi Football League (Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Inclusive League). It doesn’t matter if a player has the skills of Ronaldo or is trying the sport for the first time, for our players, it is all about getting active and learning to work together as a united team.

Our FA trained Coaches are passionate football fans and either have a learning disability themselves or have spent a career working with adults with disabilities. The Coaches create training drills that are fully inclusive and are designed to boost communication skills as well as player confidence.
