LFC Foundation kicks off new multi-sports sessions for local youngsters

Delivered alongside Liverpool organisation Spartacus Events, the new activities form part of the existing PL Kicks sessions at Speke Youth and Community Centre.

Zorb Football, UV Dodgeball and Combat Archery - a hybrid of paintball, archery and dodgeball – are among the new sports available, offering local young people an alternative to the regular PL Kicks football sessions.

Tony Cosgrove, LFC Foundation project lead, said: "A high percentage of youngsters in Liverpool don’t participate in football or other widely-available sports, so these new sessions aim to engage them in something different.

"It's so important to promote a healthy lifestyle among young people and encourage them to take part in regular physical activity, and the Spartacus sessions have already proven extremely popular.
