City fan 1982 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 I have just taken over my lads under 14 team , I thought those days were behind me ! I’d like to take them all to the gate to watch a game , but I’m not sure what else to do ? When they were little I took them to a game and they did the flag bearing thing , but they are probably too old for that now , any helpful ideas ?

A pal and I started off running the under 8s and stayed with them up u16s . We took them paint balling - that was great fun and the boys loved it. We also took them some kind of laser game where they all had to wear vests with light sensors on. It involved shooting of course and most boys love that. I can’t remember where it was but somewhere in Bristol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boys thought it was great and started badgering their parents to take them back there. Rich and I weren’t popular with mum and dad.....

Recently done a very similar scenario and I gave the team an option of what to do . They ended up playing skittles for 2-3 hours . Very cheap to rent out a local pubs alley and seemed to do the job for them.. good luck in the new role ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
