The Scottish FA and Perth & Kinross Youth FA Fun Fours Programme re-starts this Sunday (22nd August).
Fun Fours is a new initiative, also supported by Perth & Kinross Council.
The aim of developmental fours is to create a pathway for 6, 7 & 8 year olds to play in a small sided games environment which is safe and relaxed while making an easy transition into clubs.
The first block, which started in April 2010, saw more than 100 boys and girls take part in a 10 week block every Sunday morning at the North Inch (Bells Sports Centre). The six clubs that participated in this initiative were:
Crieff Juniors FC, Breadalbane CSC, Letham FC,
Bridge of Earn YFC, Jeanfields CSC & Pitfour.
Scone CSC are to join for block 2, and new clubs are always welcome.
