TROPHY TIME . . . Hollinwood FC under-13s, with captain Jack Holmes at the front, completed the Tameside and District League and cup double. The talented youngsters will be gunning for more glory in the under-14s division when the new season gets under way

FOOTBALL: TO celebrate their first anniversary, Santos Soccer School are holding an open day on Saturday.

It will be staged at Clayton playing fields (noon to 2pm), where four to seven-year-olds can take part in coaching sessions.

A family fun event will follow at Greyhound Inn, Royton.

“We ran a similar event last year to promote the opening of Santos Soccer School and it was a big success,” said head coach Gareth Smith.

“The children really enjoyed the coaching session last year. Chaddy Owl was present and he will be appearing again.”

In addition to a coaching session, there will also be a football skills exercise organised by Oldham Athletic.

Children need to bring appropriate outside clothing, footwear and shinpads if available.

Santos Soccer School coaching sessions take place every Wednesday at Hopwood Hall Sports Arena, Middleton, from 5pm to 6pm.
