FA Director of Football Development, Sir Trevor Brooking launched the 'Cheltenham Town Community, Education and Sporting Trust' in October 2007.
Using the power of sport the Charitable Trust or Community Programme as it is more commonly known, we aim to inspire and motivate children, young people, adults and families across Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds.
The activities we deliver fall under 5 strands of operation, they are; Sports Participation, Health, Education, Social Inclusion and Club Development.
Our coaches deliver in schools across the County reaching in the region of 1,500 children a week.
After School Clubs run over a ten-week period which include football skills, cricket, athletics, rugby, hockey and rounders. Holiday Soccer Courses are also very popular at a number of venues in the Cheltenham, Gloucester and Stroud area. Our Advanced Centre enables children of above average ability to gain more specialised coaching with the opportunity to progress to the club's Centre of Excellence.
On Match Days we invite school and community groups to take part in our Match Day Visits. These visits include pre match coaching sessions, a ground tour and a ticket to watch the game.
In addition we are running specifically funded projects under our Health, Education and Social Inclusion strands.
