FITC holiday coursesCambridge United's Football in the Community scheme looks forward to welcoming your children to its October half-term courses.

Once again the courses will take place throughout the county and will be held over one, two or three days. Also, and new for this half term, different age groups and girls-only courses are being held alongside the mainstream courses.

Football in the Community Officer Stuart Jacobs explained, "Although our courses are always popular, some parents have found that running courses at different venues for different age groups hasn't been convenient as they have had to do a lot more running about.

"I hope that consolidating courses in this way will make life easier for them."
