Boys and girls take advantage of football and multi sport-coaching

Date published: 17 April 2014


Over 100 boys and girls took advantage of a week's football and multi-sport coaching provided by the Football in the Community Trust coaches.

At the Soccer Factory on Monday eight of the Rochdae AFC first team squad took time out of their busy schedule after training to meet up with the children for an excitable discussion about the football season run in.

On Wednesday, Peter Vincenti, Matty Done and Matthew Lund popped in to speak to attenders, again proving extremely popular.

A spokesman said: "We are really indebted to the players, and of course Keith Hill and the management team, for allowing the lads to interact with our members especially in the important last few weeks of the season."
