Comets disability football sessions for children aged from five to 11 are coming to Alton Football Club

Tindle News

A chance to find out about disability football at Alton FC is being held in the clubhouse at the Anstey Park Enclosure on June 21 from 2pm until 3pm. Next month the club is launching Comets - weekday evening pan-disability football sessions in which children aged from five to 11 with a range of disabilities can play together. A club spokesperson said: “This is football, but not as you know it - forget results, stats and performances. It’s not traditional; it’s where playfulness, inclusivity and friendships come together. At Alton FC we believe everyone should have the opportunity to play football.”
