My name is Alan Boulter, I am the Vice-Chairman of Scole United Football Club.

We are interested in trying to re-introduce a Girls Football Group back into the Youth section of our club.

With this in mind, we are running some training sessions for Ages 6 to 12 yrs, up at Scole Playing Field, Ransome Avenue, Scole on a Saturday Morning from 10:00 am to gauge interest. The first session is on Saturday 6th July.

We are fully Football Association Affiliated and our coaches are all qualified and DBS checked.

Please would you be kind enough to display the attached flyer on your information board and pass the information on to your PTA & Associated Groups?

Kindest Regards

Alan

Can you believe that we have been running our multi-activity holiday camps across Suffolk for a year now? In that time, we have secured more wonderful venues and have had thousands of children come through our doors each school holiday to enjoy a range of activities from sports, to arts & crafts, dance, Early Years play, STEM activities, nature walks and more!

We are proud to offer our services from 8am-6pm should parents need it and we have a wide range of brilliant staff on our team, who are all DBS checked and have relevant training and experience.
