DURING October half-term a football camp took place at Gladstone Primary School courtesy of Ben Stait.

The camp, made up of 17 players, consisted of theory based lessons everyday, two practical sessions a day (including specialised goalkeeper sessions), self reflection sheets completed by the campers, evaluations of performances completed by the coaches of the strengths and areas for the player to improve in the future.

There was plenty of learning throughout the week and players showed incredible progression and abilities over just a short space of time.

A huge thank you is in order for Rory Price for being a fantastic assistant and also Kevin Owens and Haydn Stait for their contributions.

A huge thanks to the players and parents for making it such a fantastic week.

Finally a special mention to Gladstone Primary School for use of their facilities.
