FOOTBALL students from Duchy College Stoke Climsland have been inspiring the next generation of footballers during a successful soccer school held at the college, near Callington, over the February half-term.

Thirty local youngsters participated in the three-day soccer school, many of whom play for local under 11s football clubs including Callington, Lifton, Launceston and Southgate.

The enthusiastic group of Duchy College students have been delivering daily coaching sessions covering skills such as passing, dribbling, crossing and finishing.

Participants also took part in daily street soccer games, where points are scored on an individual basis and players coach and manage the games themselves with no referees.
