Two of our girls from Erdington Wildcats decided to develop their interview skills last week as well as their football skills. They got talking to one of our coaches Jack and two young players from our boys session. For us Wednesday night football is about allowing young people to build confidence in all aspects, develop communication skills on and off the pitch and talk to other young people about their experiences!
Join us on a Wednesday evening at Erdington Academy, where we run a girls and a boys football session 5pm-6pm⚽

We asked PE leads a series of questions at our recent network day to gain a better understanding of how we can push the importance of getting physical education into our partnership schools! We wanted to hear their thoughts on the current state of PE in schools, what's working, what's not and what we can do to improve it. Take a look at what they had to say...

Supporting Cycle to School Week🚴

We are proud to have helped build confident young cyclists through the cycling sessions we delivered at our HAF holiday camps over the summer Bring it on Brum. In partnership with The Active Wellbeing Society, a Bikeability delivery partner, young people had the opportunity to develop essential cycling skills, improve their confidence and learn how to ride safely🙌
