Wheelchair football club set up
A football club has been created in Cheltenham for people who use wheelchairs.

Taster sessions where wheelchair users tried out their skills proved so successful last November, the long term project has been set up.

The club has been set up by Cheltenham Borough Council and the Gloucestershire Football Association.

"We hope that this will grow into a successful recognised football club," said youth sports officer Matt Baker.

The first session is due to be held on Saturday 10 March at Benedict's College Sports Centre, Arle Road, Cheltenham.
