Coaching All I worry about now is

When teenager Kyran first attended a Telford Kicks football session, he didn’t imagine it would lead to a whole new career path. “Before the sessions, me and my mates were getting into trouble most times, for all my mates, it’s changed the way they behave and all I worry about is coaching football now.” The free football sessions are part of the Urban Games – it’s about everyone having a chance to have a go, play in your everyday trainers, make new friends and give young people a chance to try something new and maybe like Kyran, discover something brilliant you’re capable of. Sessions are free to attend and are held in local parks and playgrounds and hosted by professional coaches, so everyone gets the most out of them. More than 200 activities were on offer during the last school holiday, including football, biking, BMX, hockey, cricket, netball, dance, wildlife trails and many many more. When and where? • Every school holiday • In parks and top of the range 3G pitches • Professional coaches • Free to attend • Something for all ages from 0-16.
Weekly ‘Telford Kicks’ sessions Open to both boys and girls – are held throughout the week for young people aged 12 and over, and with top quality coaches running the sessions, everyone gets their best game.
