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?![]()
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
they can study the good friday agreement document outlining cross-border policing
that should come in handy for the trainee scrotes
Shamrock Rovers- Where trophies are won and envy is scarce
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.
Derry are close to announcing something similiar. Our model is based on the very succesful "Playing for Success" model.
The club is working with a local regneration group on this and involved the development of a dedicated Study Support Centre. Builders have been appointed and it is estimated the centre will be complete in August 08. Whilst "off site" at the moment, the plan is to move the centre to the Brandywell post redevelopment.
I was involved in the research and feasability and those plans were anything to go by, it will be an exciting project.
