    @Richard_Scope this looks like a great initiative :) 

    I do feel more tempted to take part in sport when it can be tailored around my CP like this, which is a very rare thing of course!

    Thank you so much for sharing this @Richard_Scope CP Sport are fantastic and they have a lot of support to help people get involved. They have really supported me as I develop my coaching and have been very supportive of our team. Football should be for everyone and we need to continue to push to ensure this is the case. There are not nearly enough CP football teams available, and I'm really fortunate to be supporting in trying to change this. Football is one of my greatest loves but being excluded from the practical side of the game for a long period had an impact on me. I am now extremely privileged to be able to support with the coaching of a team for children aged 4-16 years with Cerebral Palsy and other neurological conditions. We have so much fun and everyone is included regardless of their individual needs. It is a true example of how football should be. Thank you.
