Mixed-ability coaching
Our team welcomes people of all ages, abilities and genders to get
involved with our footballers who have learning disabilities or
autism.
We train weekly with skills practice, fitness tests, and short
matches. As a volunteer you'll join in the sessions with our
participants who have learning disabilities or autism, helping them
to achieve in the various exercises
Occasional tournaments
Kith & Kids United take part in a tournament two-three times each
year when we play in competition with other teams which include
people who have a learning disability or autism. You'll play in the
matches alongside our participants and celebrate their achievements
too!
"It's great to be able to do some coaching with Kith & Kids. It's
both serious and fun at the same time."
Pavel, 29 (Financial Analyst)
