Comets

Comets is a safe space for disabled children aged 5-11 to kickstart their football journey. Pan-disability is the largest format of disability football, which sees players with a broad range of impairments and health conditions play together.

Comets sessions provide a safe space for disabled children to play football, belong and just be themselves, allowing them to use their imagination to take them to a world where the possibilities are endless! More than anything, Comets is football that breaks the old rules and replaces them with a brand new one: JUST BE YOU!
