Volunteers to support and build youth/kids network in Hull
< back
Several of the beneficiaries who travelled to Bosnia & Herzegovina for Foca 08 this year are teaming-up to volunteer for DADs Team England Footballers Charity sponsored project.
The Green Pitch project was set up with funds from England players after they failed to qualify for the Euro Championshiops in Switzerland/Austria. The funds supported the aftermath of the 2007 flooding in Hull.
The volunteers are presently organising a football match for the 20th August, a film crew from Team England will be there to talk to the volunteers and film their work, and report back to the England players.
The project will run until March 2008, at the moment there are football outreach sessions, in the Autumn/Winter period there will be organised indoor workshops to create a comic about football & the local environment, it will be a safety manual for kids in the community.
