Training Ground Meet the First Team

Our ‘Training Ground’ programme is a free mentoring programme for those aged 16-24 who are not in education, employment or training, giving these young people the tools they need to kick off their career.

The programme focuses on areas such as physical and mental health, work experience and volunteering opportunities, and developing key skills like team work, communication and goal setting.

This week, as part of the programme, participants had the opportunity to watch the first team in action, and then meet with and talk to players, and the manager, Neil Harris, followed by a tour.

We hope that the day was exciting and inspiring for all those involved, and are looking forward to what’s next for our ‘Training Ground’ programme participants.
