A local girls soccer team from McKay Middle School in East Boston joined the two foundations and local non-profit organisation, Boston Scores, at East Boston Memorial Stadium for a morning of skills workshops and activities as part of a new twinning project.
LFC Foundation staff delivered a football clinic, which included teamwork and communication skills, before hosting a Q&A with the 16 youngsters. The group then headed to the home of the Red Sox, Fenway Park, for the afternoon to take in a baseball game.
Gemma Smith, LFC Foundation's senior project manager, said: “This session will be the start of an exciting twinning and distant learning project between girls here in Boston and back home in Merseyside.
