The Hunslet Club has launched a programme of "football for tots"
training for the youngest stars of tomorrow – aged as young as eighteen months old!
"Football 4 Tots" allows parents to join in with having fun alongside
their growing young children with an emphasis on enjoyment and gentle exercise.
Says Craig Gilmore, Sports Development Worker at the charity based in South Leeds:
"Each session is taught by FA qualified, First Aid trained, CRB checked and
experienced coaches in a safe, non-competitive environment and we aim to encourage
confidence, co-ordination, balance, agility, listening, sharing and communication
skills amongst early years children."
