FUTURE GULLS

[Branscombe]

I posted this under getting the kids interested but thought it may be missed as it's an old thread...

For any of you with kids, the Future Gulls are up and running again. For ten pounds membership/joining fee they get a really smart ruck-sack ideal for school, sports etc.(probably worth more than the joining fee on its' own) plus organised events eg just they've had a multi-sport day run by the community coaches where almost 50 children took part and a questions and answers with Alan Knill. Various other events to get them involved with the Club are in the pipeline including a Halloween Party at Plainmoor etc. etc. The Junior section also get in free to all non-category A games, discounts at the club shop etc. See the link below...

Also worth a look at the Torquay United Football In The Community site to see what's available for the the kids, as well as all of the weekly football courses there are holiday courses and Birthday Parties/tours of the ground, chances to meet players etc. Frank Prince and his team also run courses at local schools throughout the area.

I'll get my little one signed up then asap and just hope it isn't another one of those 'pay your money and then get forgotten about' schemes which we seem to be famous for. I am prepared to support the club in this initiative and although my daughter won't be able to access the courses and things she will still be a member and feel a part of the club from 200 and odd miles away and that is what I am trying to promote to her. If we brought out a pink away kit then i'd be laughing!

Yes I will go for this and get her joined up as soon as I get round to it. Great idea too.
