Foundation of Light to deliver Kellogg's Football Camps
Foundation of Light are pleased to be delivering Kellogg’s Football Camps this Summer!
Our varied holiday football camps have been running for several years, supporting young people from across our region to stay active over school holidays, whether they are starting their footballing journeys or refining their skills further.
This year, we are teaming up with one of the UK’s most popular cereal brands, Kellogg’s, to make our summer holiday camps bigger and more exciting than ever!
With sessions based at the Beacon of Light and Beamish Football Centre, the Kellogg’s Football Camps are the best way for boys and girls to enjoy their football, and to support parents in keeping their kids active and entertained during the school summer holidays.
To celebrate the announcement, Kellogg’s is giving away 30,000 free places in partnership with the EFL and EFL Trust for camps nationwide before they kick off this summer* (see below for information in how to get involved).
Former Hull City and England defender, Michael Dawson said: "For me, football camps during school breaks were where I had the most fun, kicking the football around with your mates. The EFL has such an advantage being part of so many different communities up and down the country, and to have Kellogg’s on board this summer to give so many kids the same opportunity I had when I was younger is really exciting.”
Chris Silcock, Managing Director of Kellanova (the company that owns Kellogg’s) said: “Most families will be within 15 miles of a Kellogg’s Football Camp, giving children up and down Britain an opportunity to get active this summer. Run by FA qualified coaches, the camps aim to be fun and to give girls and boys the opportunity to get onto the pitch and follow in the footsteps of their footballing heroes.”
