Walton Le Dale JFC is a junior football club based just south of Preston, Lancashire, UK, offering football for boys and girls from U6 to U16 #wldjfc
3 of our coaches heading to St George's Park today for the @EnglandFootball Greater Game conference. Focusing on moving, eating, sleeping and thinking well, it will give them tools to bring back to the club to continue helping our players develop and grow on and off the pitch.

Across this weekend’s games on the 28 & 29 September, we'll be supporting The FA’s Play Safe Campaign - to ensure that everyone knows their role in keeping football safe. For details visit englandfootball.com/playsafe & let’s enjoy another great weekend of football together. 💛⚽️
