MORE than 180 players with disabilities or special needs will be involved in Sunday’s annual Football4all gala day at Valentine Sports Park, Glenwood.
Organised by Football NSW, the event brings together the players and their families for a fun-filled day.
The program kicks off at 10am and there will be special guests including Central Coast Mariners players, Maltese international John Hutchinson, New Zealander Michael McGlinchey and rising stars, Mustafa Amini, Sam Gallagher, Bernie Ibini-Isei and Trent Sainsbury.
Newly-appointed CEO Eddie Moore said: ``Football NSW is proud to have developed such an initiative and we are committed to the ongoing growth and development of our established and new special needs football programs.
``Football4all is a fantastic opportunity for special needs players and their families to the world game in a fun filled environment.
``Volunteers not only involved with Football4all, but across the country, need to be commended on their tireless devotion to implementing special needs football programs and creating awareness of these platforms to families.’’
The event coincides with Football Federation Australia’s recently-launched Disability Football Month, aimed at assisting with the promotion and development of football across all levels and abilities.
