Free football kit scheme for primary schools

Premier League Primary Stars has launched a scheme offering primary schools free resources which can be used for active classroom sessions and PE lessons, such as footballs, floor spots and giant dice.

Schools can apply for the Premier League Primary Stars Kit and Equipment scheme until 6 April and successful applicants will receive their kit/equipment from September 2018.

Nick Perchard, Head of Community at the Premier League, said: “We are offering primary schools the opportunity to apply for free kit and equipment. We hope this year’s process will be as successful as last year and that it will encourage teachers who have not yet signed up to the programme to get involved with Premier League Primary Stars.”

Schools should visit www.plprimarystars.com/kit-scheme for details of how to apply for the kit.

The Premier League Primary Stars programme is a national curriculum-linked education initiative, designed to inspire children to learn, engage and be active. Using the appeal of the Premier League and professional football clubs, the programme provides ways for teachers to inspire girls and boys aged 5-11 in the classroom, the playground and on the sports field.

The Premier League Primary Stars Kit & Equipment Scheme is run in partnership with Nike and delivered by the Football Foundation.
