A Taste Of English School Life



On Thursday the lads following the English option here on the course had the fantastic opportunity to mix with English school students, at the local secondary school near the Reebok stadium.




As part of the programme it is important that the students experience every aspect of English life, so being invited to the local school was a perfect opportunity to do that.




The day started with a welcome by the head of languages then a meet and greet with the local students. They spent some time getting to know each other, then it was into lessons.




the morning lessons included a food technology lesson, where even Ebrahim got stuck into the cooking.




A great day was had by all, and all the lads found the experience a worth while activity.

Eccles College 3 - 2 Edukick England

Not a great day trip out in the new kit to Eccles College. Once again the team went down by one goal after dominating the game throughout. In a tough and physical game they should have come out on top. James Ward, course leader and coach is still amazed at the result after they were on top for most of the game, and the statistics show much more position, attacking plays and entries into the opponent area.

Lot's to work on tomorrow in the double training session.

The cold winter has set in now here in Bolton, maybe that had an effect on the lads today, the temperature only just reaching freezing at points today.

Bring on the next game.

New Strip For The Lads

A big thank you to the Rijo cafe for sponsoring the new playing kit for the lads, they showed it off today in the game at Eccles College.
