A programme of sporting development holidays has been instigated by the Centre working in partnership with Derby County Football Club’s ‘Football in the Community’ and Walbrook Community Sport.
The generous support of companies and organisations within the community has assured the programme for 2007. Their support is recognised within the page ‘Community Partners’.
On the three half term breaks of the academic year fifteen children aged from eight to fourteen together with two DCFC coaches and a staff member of WCS holiday for the week at the Centre and enjoy an intensive programme of coaching combined with social activities provided by the Centre’s staff. With referring schools and teachers, parents and the three hosting partners recognizing the accumulative benefits gained by the children the programme has been extended to include a dedicated coaching day within the weekly holiday schedule throughout the summer holiday.
