	Plans to establish Sunderland's first disabled youth football team are well under way with the help of Humbeldon & Plains Farm Youth Football. The brainchild of Mark Dunn who's son has cerebral palsy, Mark approched the Club in the hope of setting up a team for children with disabilities to play football. An initial meeting was held at the Club's ground within Plains Farm Primary School with Club officials, who were very keen to get it up and running. With the backing of the Durham FA and Sunderland City Council who pledged their support. Two coaches from the Club will take the Disability Coaching Course in order to give Josh and other children with disabilities the very best coaching possible. The training sessions are up and running with an appointed and approved FA coach.It is becoming a great success which run on a Sunday morning at the Club's ground. To join in one of these sessions or any info you need, go to the contact page to e-mail the Club. Joining in on one of the sessions was Stephen Prior the England goalkeeper for the National Cerebral Palsy team who showed up to show off his shot stopping skills between the posts.
