What Sally Fenton plans to do with her prize money…

Sally Fenton, winner of the Sports Zone.

I plan to use the money to promote the PAPA project (www.projectpapa.org, www.empoweringcoaching.co.uk) which is a large European research project beginning this September.

The Project aims to educate football coaches all over Europe (the UK, Spain, Greece, France and Norway), helping to provide more positive experiences for those children who take part in youth sport football, and increase the amount of children taking part in football and youth sport in general! The project is supported by the FA and hopefully Aston Villa!!

As part of my research I will be using a Mobile Health Bus. We will park this at schools and football pitches where volunteers will be able to take part in the research there and then! Our idea is that Aston Villa may be able to come along with us on these days. We will use the money to promote this so more children know about the research and have the chance to take part, and also to buy things like t-shirts etc. to hopefully give as souvenirs to those who take part.
