Man Utd's initiatives

Manchester United are not only a group of 16 players you see in the stadiams every weekend or wednesdays, but also they are out and about to help to promote football all over the country (UK) from the grassroots level.

Yesterday Man Utd inaugurated their National Curriculum Education Program at Old Trafford. This means that what is being taught at the academy at OT will be the same as the one taught in, say, Plymouth through its academies spread nationalwide.

This is an example which I strongly recommend be followed by other big clubs in developing countries. Let big clubs return something back to local communities. And the kids who would benefit through these kind of schemes, will be tomorrow's big stars!
