Football is 'For All' – and almost one in five of us has a long-standing limiting disability, illness or condition.

This online module lasts 30 minutes and examines how to support the individuals in your team, whatever their ability level. We'll explore what's meant by disability and the different pathways available for disabled players. Examples include mainstream, pan-disability and impairment-specific football.
