Celebrating Our Impact at Cardiff City Stadium
Young people from Cardiff City FC Foundation's Premier League Kicks site in Ebbw Vale will be representing Cardiff City FC in the Under-16 mixed Premier League Kicks Cup regional tournaments, in a bid to secure their place at the 2023 finals.
Ten regional tournaments are being staged at community facilities across the country, with hundreds of young people representing Premier League, EFL and National League clubs, hoping to win the opportunity to represent their club in the 2023 Premier League Kicks Cup finals at the University of Warwick.
Cardiff City FC Foundation's Premier League Kicks sessions have been running in areas across South Wales contributing to building stronger communities, providing a safe environment for young people to play football and tackling anti-social behaviour.
In the last 12 months, we've delivered over 800 Premier League Kicks session across 39 different locations across South Wales, with over 1,300 young people taking part.
Premier League Kicks is the League’s longest-running community programme and sees more than 90 clubs, in some of the most high-need areas in England and Wales, run free weekly football sessions and positive activity to inspire young people to reach their potential.
Jamie Thomas, Community Outreach Coordinator at Cardiff City FC Foundation said:
"The Premier League Kicks Cup is always a good way of inspiring the young people we work with and gives them a sense of belonging to the football team they support. The majority of our participants in Ebbw Vale are Cardiff City FC season ticket holders, so they see this as a once in a lifetime opportunity to represent the football club they love.
"A huge thank you to the Premier League and the Premier League Charitable fund for their continued support and allowing us to be able to reach so many young people through the power of football."
