Speaking about the scheme the Foundation Community Manager Gareth Cook said: “The club already has a very good relationship with the local junior clubs in the area, but we want to strengthen that even further and it is a key role of ours to help support volunteers who give up their time to produce future stars and inspire children and young people to keep active.”
