CHILDREN attending a soccer school in Stretford have been provided with a brand new strip after the club landed a major new sponsor.

North Trafford Athletic, who train in Longford park, were provided with the new kit courtesy of Intu Trafford Centre.

Coach Simon Bell praised Intu for their support, saying: "It's really pleasing that such a big organisation has shown an interest in our small club.”

He added: “Their enthusiasm is really refreshing and the children take great pride in wearing their new kits.”

North Trafford Athletic play in the Timperley and District Junior Football League, with teams taking part up to the under-15s level.

The soccer school runs on Saturdays at 10am. For more information contact Simon Bell on 07597 585288.
