Free Portsmouth FC matchday programmes |
|
|
After the extremely successful take up of this offer earlier this season, we have another large amount of PFC matchday programmes from the final few home games to distribute to local schools free of charge. These have proven fantastic resources to give away to deserving football mad pupils, to use as an alternative reading resource for school libraries or with reluctant readers.
If your school would be interested in receiving some of these programmes, please contact Primary Stars coordinator, Sam Cleare, at sam.cleare@pompeyitc.org.uk.
