Change Of Football Training
Ben and Aaron have now stopped the Friday evening football training at Goals. Aaron has completely given up now as he didn’t really have any friends that went on a Friday, which is fair enough, and he was always tired out by the time Friday came, but Ben (and the rest of the Bickleigh Buddies) have moved to football training on a Thursday evening at Marjons. This session is run by West Pro so is properly run so Kelly doesn’t have to organise it anymore, which is a massive relief! It has also given us back our Friday evenings, which is brilliant, as it was getting to the stage where we were getting fed up with going through all the traffic on a Friday evening to get to Goals. Marjons is obviously much closer and the traffic is much better due to it starting later at 19:05, compared with 18:30 at Goals.
Ben has had a couple of sessions now and has really enjoyed it. The coach seems to be much better and knows what he is doing and can easily handle the boys, compared with some of the other ones we have had in the past at Goals. The artificial pitch that they play on is really good and much better, and they will also have the opportunity to train on the proper grass pitches when they are free on Thursday evenings. So it should give Ben a proper experience of playing football on grass!
Hopefully the positive start with this will carry on!
