One Two Magazine Feb Edition One-Two Mag February edition | Page 2

A WORD FROM GRASSROOTS Welcome to February's edition of the One-Two Magazine...... Well January was an absolute wash out with some teams contacting us saying they hadn't played since September!! Since our last issue the weather has been a huge factor completely destroying some grounds, it was great to see the FA and Football Foundation getting there heads together and launching the emergency weather fund. I hope some of the teams and clubs out there have applied and benefitted from the fund. In this issue we bring you some new features with Your Player Profiles and Your Snapshots. Make sure to make your own player profiles on the SuperStar maker on Grassroots website. Also the FA will have a regular slot providing news on what the FA are doing within Grassroots. Enjoy this issue guys. All the best Grassroots. OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENTS One Two Magazine has become an important community within youth and grassroots football. The website allows teams and clubs a great forum to share news and profiles of their clubs, as well as develop a great network of contacts and support services. The FA are always supportive of those looking to promote and support grassroots football, the lifeblood of our national game. Scott Field Head of Communications The FA The Professional Footballers Association The One-Two Magazine online are officially endorsed by the Professional Footballers Association who were quick to recognise the work we are doing in support of the junior game across the UK: “The PFA is pleased to support One-Two Magazine online to promote and support grassroots football. If football is to remain as the most popular spectator and participant sport in the world it is important that England, with its history in the game and its high economy status, does all it can to make sure that the base of the football pyramid is alive and well with good pitches, good changing facilities and above all good football coaches.” Gordon Taylor OBE Chief Executive of the PFA GRASSROOTS FOOTBALLL www.grf-football.co.uk 2
