Half Term saw Colwyn Bay Football in the Community (CBFITC) host various activities at: Llanelian Road, and within residential areas of the local community.

SOCCER CAMPS
Soccer Camps for 5 to 12 year olds ran throughout the week from 10am to 3pm: providing opportunities for the kids to develop their skills, play in a tournament and take part in football quizzes.

COMMUNITY FIRST
Community Coaches, Joey and Christian Fontana, worked with one of CBFITC new partner’s ‘Community First’ to provide another ‘free’ football coaching session on Greenfield Road ‘all weather’ pitch. A sunny day meant a great turnout with children of mixed genders, different ages, and various ability levels joining in the session and having fun. Even the Community First staff members (Helen Jackson and Sarah Mylchreest) joined in and tried to show off their football skills!

LITTLE STARS KICK START
Saturday the 20th of February saw the first day back for our ‘Little Stars Kick Start’ players, 3 – 5 year olds. The sessions are held indoors on a Saturday morning at Aberconwy Sports Centre (Conwy) and run for 45 minutes, from 10.15am to 11.00am. These sessions offer a great opportunity to young children (boys & girls) to learn the basic skills needed for football and at the same time building self-confidence and presentation skills.

GRAFFITI PROJECT
 A Graffiti project supported by ‘Conwy Art Service’ and led by local Artist Andy Birch was based at the Football Ground on Thursday & Friday; which was a huge success! The activity was free of charge and allowed young people up to the age of 16 to develop their artistic/graffiti skills in the morning and their football skills in the afternoon. A mural has been painted by the team of 16 young artists under the supervision of Andy on one of the white walls at the football ground, and it will be unveiled tomorrow (Tuesday the 23rd) at the official launch of CBFITC before the first team fixture vs Warrington (7.45pm Kick Off).
