Bedwell Rangers are supporting schools' football by offering free after-school training sessions.
It is part of the club's initiative to get more children interested in playing football.
Two coaches from the club have been running these sessions at Ashtree Primary School in Stevenage since September.
Aimed at seven and eight-year-olds, they enable children who might not be able to access sport outside school the opportunity to train and play.
The Year Two and Three children from Ashtree recently played their first competitive game against St Margaret Clitherow School which ended in a 2-2 draw.
The Ashtree team is shown above with the Bedwell Rangers coaches Claire Eden-Walker and Steve Carroll.
