Success Through Sport

Success Through Sport is an 8 week fun football program for unemployed mancunians aged between 18-35. The program is provided by CITC and Manchester NHS with support from Jobcentre plus and aims to raise awareness of health and employability issues affecting the participants.

The 8 coached football sessions provide a great opportunity to get active, learn new skills and meet new people while the 2 health workshops provide the chance to make a real difference to your health, by making a healthy lifestyle choice with the support of an NHS community health trainer. The 2 employability workshops are supported by Jobcentre plus with the aim of improving the skills profile and general employability of the participants.

Once they have attended all 8 sessions and all 4 workshops then CITC will give the participants an opportunity to take their FA level 1 football coaching certificate. This will open the door to opportunities like volunteering, work experience and the chance to take other certificates that will improve the skills profile for the motivated individuals who are ready to make a change to their lives.

“Success through sport has not only changed my career prospects but it has helped change my life”. Sam Brown (Success Through Sport Participant)

“This is the best program I have ever worked on, watching a person’s self-esteem and confidence grow while helping them become a healthier, happier and more motivated individual is the most rewarding thing I’ve done” .
