Bohemian FC this week will launch English Through Football, a programme for primary school children who do not have English as a first language.
They'll certainly broaden their vocabulary at Dalymount:)
And hopefully broaden our attendances with the parents of these kids
Participants will learn English through Bohs-related material, such as match programmes and player profiles and interviews, and will visit two Bohs games during the course. Match reports will make up the homework!
Can we get Mark O'Neill/Cummins on this? :confused:
"Describe in no more than 15,000 words why Sean Connor was dismissed from the club - citing source material and eyewitness accounts from Steve Bruce where appropriate"Quote:

A very novel idea - albeit slightly bizarre.
I can see it working though - non-nationals won't have the same hostility towards domestic football that the Oirish have, and getting kids youing is key.
Good luck to Bohs - I hope they get more support out of this.
Classic Unionist Bohs... Pandering to the Brits again! What about Irish Through Football? ;)Quote:

I was involved in the research and feasability and those plans were anything to go by, it will be an exciting project.
I'm sorry BGR this will have to be moved to the Bohs forum, we all know the commotion that's caused if someone posts about a GUFC initiative in the EL section:DQuote:

Good man Ronnie. In English, it's spelt Phibsborough, as it happens. ;)
Keep it on topic please.
