The Crawley Town Community Foundation has restarted its soccer schools in Crawley, West Sussex, which are running from February 16 to February 20, 2026. This programme offers children aged 5 to 12 professional football coaching and supervised activities during the school break. It is designed to support local families with childcare while helping young players improve their skills on the pitch.
Sessions are held at the Broadfield Stadium ball court on a 3G surface and include behind-the-scenes stadium tours. According to the Crawley Town Community Foundation, the event focuses on teaching teamwork, respect, and sportsmanship. Children also have the opportunity to eat their lunch in the stadium stands as part of the experience.
This is the first major holiday initiative under KB Sports and Leisure, which took full control of the football club in August 2025. The new owners have shifted the club away from previous cryptocurrency-focused management to focus more on community-based projects. The foundation aims to make the stadium a central hub for the Crawley community once again.
Parents were able to sign up their children for the week-long school through the foundation website. The sessions provide a safe environment for local children to stay active and socialise during their time away from the classroom.
