Summer of Football
Haddington Athletic CFC has obtained funding from the Scottish Government as part of the wider Summer of Sport Initiative, delivered in partnership with the Scottish FA. The summer of football will place children, families, and communities at the heart of a unique national celebration, as Scotland return to the FIFA World Cup.
Matchday Events
As part of our Summer of Football programme, Haddington Athletic CFC will be opening their doors to players, families and the wider community to come together to celebrate Scotland’s World Cup journey in a positive football environment.
Our younger age groups will play small sided games with a World Cup theme the day of the Morocco and Brazil games on Friday 19th & Wednesday 24th June. Both events are between 6-9pm.
There will be an attacking zone and skill zone for everyone in the local community to enjoy.
These events are about more than simply watching games. They are about inspiring the next generation, bringing people together through football and creating memories within the club environment.
Football has the power to unite people and we’re exited to help create that atmosphere right here at Haddington Athletic CFC this summer.
We will decorate our clubhouse and facility with World Cup flags, Scotland bunting and we will have a buffet for everyone involved in the celebrations. East Coast FM and Love Ice Cream will be joining us
Summer Activity
To follow on from our Match Day Events, Haddington Athletic CFC will deliver free football sessions through the summer holidays for Girls aged 5-12 and for Teenagers (both boys & girls).
Girls Free Football will be between 10am-12pm and sessions for Teenagers will be between 1-3pm on Thursdays.
The programme will focus on creating accessible, enjoyable and engaging football opportunities for young people throughout the summer months while continuing to build a positive environment around the club.
This is aimed at young people not yet playing football together with young people that are already playing football at Haddington Athletic or elsewhere.
