Greenock Morton Community Trust, the charity arm of the Greenock Morton Football Club, have used the funding to deliver their Micro Morton’s project; a mass participation programme that addresses physical literacy issues in preschool children aged 2-4 years. GMCT have delivered four free taster sessions to all 19 council run nursery schools in Inverclyde reaching 1100 young people with children as young as two years old benefit from physical activity during their pre-school years.

The feedback from the nurseries was fantastic and continued throughout the programme from various nursery head teachers within the Inverclyde area;

“Very professional – the children thoroughly enjoyed visits from Morton FC coaches.  They are continuing to develop skills in dribbling, balance etc.  Overall, this has been a very worthwhile experience.”
