Ability Counts (Disability Football)
Initially the aim of the project was to deliver 1 informal coaching session per week to Adults with Learning Difficulties
The coaching session gives the players an opportunity to socialise around a sporting activity with other members of the community giving them something to look forward to and participate in.
This training session soon developed into teams being formed and friendly matches being played.
Next stop was competitive matches as the Teams evolved and entered the Beds/Herts FA Ability Counts League. In 2006 two teams were entered (Yellows & Whites) with the teams coming 1st and 2nd in the first year and they attended all the fixtures arranged.
Football training is on Monday’s 1.30 - 2.30pm at The Arena, Hitchin Town FC’s newly refurbished training ground at Norton Road, Baldock. The squad trains on a ‘state of the art’ full-size artificial pitch.
For further details contact: Derek Barker 01462 487451 or click here to view the Ability Counts website.
Junior Ability Counts
There is also a junior section for Ability Counts with training from 4.45 - 5.45pm every Monday during term-time and opportunities to play in organised tournaments (four per year).
The next planned tournament to be held at The Arena is on Sunday 12th February 2012.
