The summer holidays are two weeks old but there is still lots of fun to be had.

Courses are running at various venues throughout August.

All courses must be pre-booked by calling the PitC office on (023) 9272 8899 (option one) during weekday business hours or via the website pompeyitc.co.uk

Most courses run from 10am to 3pm unless otherwise stated and children should be dressed appropriately for the weather, bring a packed lunch, plenty to drink and have sun cream to apply in hot weather.  

They should wear shin pads and trainers or football boots.

The sessions are open to boys and girls of all abilities, aged between five and 12.

Courses run every week day at PlayFootball (Roko), which is Pompey’s training ground.

There are always first-team players to be spotted and sometimes they visit the courses to sign autographs and have pictures taken.
