Give Us Back Our Game have been working along side a terrific community project in Ashford called South Side FC.
Every Saturday children from 10-13 years old play 4v4 and other SSG's in Victoria Park. Every week they are getting 5-6 new players and the kids are playing some great imaginative football.
I am at present working on another project which is in my own neighbourhood called the Chesterton Project.
We are looking at running fun SSGs for the local kids at two grass sites.
There has been a lot of problems with drink, drugs and arson recently and there is very little for the kids to do.
This will be run more on youth club lines than football club lines and we have already sorted out insurance etc.
If we get this up and running, GUBOG would like to use it as a blue print for community projects all over the country.
Lets get kids out and playing football.
