CITY'S Football Development Programme are looking for youngsters for their new U9-U10 set-up, which is designed to help improve children’s football ability, but also teach them valuable people and life skills.

Email: joe.woodger@bcfccommunity.co.uk to sign your child up for that one.

You can also apply for their sixth-form scholarship programme, which offers the opportunity to study any A-Level course that you wish, as well as the football benefits of the programme.

Register here.

On the staffing side of things, the FDP are on the lookout for three strength and conditioning coaches, one lead and two assistants.

All three will require a BTEC Level 3 in Sport or an A-Level in Sport, and must be free between 5:30 and 6:30pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as Saturday mornings.

Send your CV to fdp@bcfccommunity.co.uk to apply or find out more.

Finally, the FDP have completed their 'Race to Spain' fundraiser, running over 7,000km to raise money for their planned football development centre just off Heaton Road.
