Scottish FA National Disability Football Roadshow Campaign

Aug 27 2009 by Eric MacKinnon, West Lothian Courier

The Scottish FA are kick-starting their National Disability Football Roadshow Campaign this month in Bathgate.

The roadshows will allow people across the country the chance to experience Scotland's national sport no matter their ability or disability.

This programme is part of the campaign to promote the Cerebral Palsy European Championships in Glasgow, in August 2010, ran in partnership with Scottish Disability Sport.

The roadshows are designed to give players with a range of ambulant disabilities (non – wheelchair users) the opportunity to play football with their peers in a safe and fun environment delivered by Scottish FA certified coaches.

The session will take place at Bathgate Sports Centre on September 26 between 11am and 1pm. It is open to players from the age of eight years to adult.
