PRESS RELEASE: FEEL GOOD FOOTBALL PROJECT SET TO KICK OFF


A pioneering new football project - designed for unemployed males aged 16 to 25 years living in or around the Portsmouth area - is set to pilot next month, the brainchild of local positive mental health charity Feel Good UK.

Offering 2 x 1 hour training sessions with coaches from the Pompey Sports and Education Foundation, and 2 x 1 hour classroom coaching sessions designed to help the players dramatically improve their performances on the pitch, the pilot project funded by Feel Good UK is set to take place between Monday 7th and Thursday 10th March 2011.

A partnership between Feel Good UK, the Pompey Sports and Education Foundation and the ‘Goals’ Soccer Centre, the pilot project is part of the charity’s commitment to creating attractive and engaging youth focused initiatives to help up-skill disengaged and hard to reach young males living in the local area. Feedback from the pilot will help the charity secure funding to roll a larger longer running project out later in the year, which will include the formation of the charity’s own football team which will be entered into local and national leagues.

The pilot project is looking to recruit 50 local unemployed males aged between 16 and 25 years, who will commit to both workshops and provide valuable feedback on their experience. Participation will be free of charge.

Interested applicants should either telephone Feel Good UK on 07908 235080, or email the charity at hello@feelgoodukcharity.com to express their interest in taking part. Those selected will be given detailed information about the course nearer the start date.

The project builds on the phenomenal success that the charity had with its 5-day residential course, held at Fairthorne Manor in Southampton, last summer. The charity took 9 long term unemployed participants with them on a 5-day self development activity focused course, and since then over 60% of participants have made huge changes in their lives, securing work and training opportunities or taking steps towards achieving their life ambitions.

Feel Good UK teaches easy to apply drug-free techniques to improve how people feel, releasing people from the negative emotions of stress and depression, activating within them drive and motivation to help them start living the life they have always dreamed of.
