Members of our Rocky 7 programme got a unique insight into how football kits are made – and then got creative themselves – thanks to a special session with adidas this week.
Arsenal in the Community launched the Rocky 7 mentoring programme in memory of Arsenal legend David Rocastle back in 2021.
The programme aimed to support local young people by providing them with one-to-one support and exposure to a wide range of experiences that would inspire them and aid their personal development.
This year we have 18 young people on the programme who have taken part in a wide range of activities over the past eight months including stadium tours, Q&A sessions with Arsenal members of staff to discuss careers and hosting a Community Christmas football tournament in December.
