Future Stars Football Club - A case study
This is a highly successful football club based in Brixton for children, young people and adults currently running 3 youth teams and one adult team in affiliated 11-aside leagues. The club has negotiated with the local council to use nearby Ruskin Park facilities as their training ground free of charge. The club successfully fills a void for affordable professional football training aimed at boys and young men from low income BME families. Discipline and behaviour are very important to the coaches. It offers an extensive coaching programme and has ambitious plans for future development.
