My son attends both after school hobby football and multi sports and loves them both. He has also attended the summer programs at Lostock Hall school and he has had so much fun! Mr Bidwell always goes above and beyond making sure he is comfortable and happy. They are a great team! I'd also like to mention Annalise who has always been extremely helpful and pleasant with any queries I've had. Great job!
I' highly recommend LSC

Fantastic first taster football session with my daughter, coaches are really friendly and amazing with the kids. They made it so much fun with an animal theme and she loved the lion mascot. We have booked on the term as soon as we got home! Highly recommend.
