City in the Community (CITC) is to help hundreds of young people take part in four new sports across Manchester in the build-up to the 2012 Olympic Games.

The community scheme is linking in with sports clubs and schools in Manchester and Tameside to promote badminton, judo, table tennis and volleyball in the project supported by the sport’s governing bodies, the Youth Sports Trust, Sport England and the Premier League.

Premier League 4 Sport will help the Government’s ambition to offer young people five hours of sports a week and all sessions are open to both boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 16

Alex Williams MBE, CITC’s Executive Manager said: “Premier League 4 Sport is another exciting initiative that will use the branding of Manchester City to encourage more young people to take part in sport.”
