What’s On in March?

2 March 2016

This month is a hectic time in the footballing world, with several English teams

fighting for silverware both domestically and internationally - it could be make

or break time!

 

Nottingham’s two main clubs, however, cannot boast to be among those looking

to round off a dramatic season with trophies, so the closest you’re likely to get to

that action is through a TV screen.

 

But why would you waste your time on those unimportant games when you

could be out and about, playing football in Nottingham and getting involved at

the level that really matters?

On Tuesday 8th March, Nottingham celebrates International Women’s Day with a

tournament designed to Reclaim the Pitch for women and girls above 16 years of

age. All abilities are welcome at the Forest Sports Zone from 7-9pm. You can

book a place for your team by emailing Katie@city-of-football.uk.

 

Girls Only Nights are also being hosted at the Forest Sports Zone from 7-8pm on

Tuesdays as part of the Get Into Football initiative, and Female Football Fives

continues to grow as more teams are joining the league on Monday nights from

6-9pm at the Football Centre in West Bridgford.

 

Of course, there are opportunities for boys as well as girls if you’re looking to get

involved, with mixed sessions available for all ages throughout the month at

various locations. Check here for the full list.

 

 

Whichever session you decide on attending you’ll find a professional coach

running drills tailored to the age group and abilities present, so what’s holding

you back?

 

The Monty Hind Club are launching disability football sessions next week which

we’re excited about, and we’ve got our very own City of Football app launching

later this month – a brilliant digital tool that will help you organize matches,

recruit for your team or just join in when you fancy a kick about.

 

Look out for us on Notts TV this month too – stay connected on social to get the

scoop on what’s happening when.

 

Finally, you’ll find us at Harvey Haddon for the Sainsbury’s Sports Relief Mile on

Sunday 20th March. Kick, dribble or show off your ball skills as you do your mile

with the City of Football team!

 

There’s never been a better time to play football. Leave the TV watching to those

who can’t. Grab hold of your boots, get out there and kick some balls!
