Crawley Town Football Club is reaching out to the Town’s aspiring young footballers and looking to teach them life skills as well as sporting skills.

The youth outreach programme in partnership with the Premier League Kicks programme began ten years ago, with the aim to create safer, stronger and more respectful communities through the development of young people’s potential, whilst providing access to facilities, coaching and mentoring.

In its first decade, Premier League Kicks has engaged 205,650 young people in weekly football coaching sessions held at local community venues across the UK.
