IMPORTANT 3G PITCH UPDATE‼️

Big changes are coming! Our brand-new 3G pitch redevelopment project has started 👏

❓What happens next ?
For the duration of the construction, all football sessions will move temporarily onto the grass pitches (top field across the road!), while our fantastic new 3G facility is being built. Upon arrival, all players should register as normal with the coaching staff at the sports centre.

ℹ️ Soccer Tots will continue as scheduled in the sports hall with no changes.

🛠️ Project timeline:
The 3G redevelopment is expected to take approximately 14 weeks.

We’re incredibly excited about the improvements ahead and can’t wait to welcome everyone onto the new pitch once completed 👍

Thank you as always for your continued support.

Regards,

The MBFDC Team

‼️ A Message to Parents

Attending our Saturday sessions will not affect your child’s existing school or weekend football commitments. We believe what we offer will enhance their overall football development!

🌟 What to Expect

In partnership with Cornwall FA, our Saturday morning football sessions are open to children of all abilities. Whether your child is completely new to football or already plays regularly, they’ll enjoy:

• A fun, pressure-free environment
• Football sessions to develop the players holistically, across the coaching 4 Corner Model (developing the players competence – 1. Physically, 2. Technical/Tactical, 3. Psychological and, 4. Social)
• Small-sided games to encourage creativity and plenty of game time, also match play understanding whilst developing ball mastery skills
• Lots of positive social interaction!

All sessions are led by UEFA/FA qualified and DBS-checked coaching staff.
