Support our weekly football session

by Brushstrokes

Every Monday at Hadley Stadium in Smethwick, 4:30-6pm, we run a football session particularly aimed at asylum seekers and refugees. It’s a popular session and we’d love someone’s support to ensure the sessions run nice and smoothly. Tasks can include: welcoming people to the session and signing them in, helping the coaches to distribute and count in bibs, select teams, and you can also help to referee the matches. It's a relaxed atmosphere where everyone has a passion for football & come along to have a good time.
