Football Crazy!
Appletree is leading the way for football with children and dads/male carers. Appletree is the first Children's centre in the area to offer football sessions for under 5’s. The sessions have been a huge success. The children, whilst scoring the football goals have achieved new personal goals, by increasing their fitness, developing team and social skills and most importantly having fantastic football fun with new friends.
These are just some of the examples of how football crazy Appletree has gone!
