NEW YEAR … NEW YOU
Queen of the South are giving supporters the chance to lose the festive pounds as they start recruiting for Football Fans in Training (FFIT). A programme which helps supporters feel better and live a healthier lifestyle by losing weight, taking more exercise and improving their diet. The project ran at 16 clubs last year and is now being delivered at an additional 10, including Queens.
The initiative, funded by the Scottish Government, is free for participants and is now running for the fourth consecutive season at Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) Clubs. Those taking part in the 12-week programme can enjoy weekly training sessions at the Queen of the South Training Academy, King George V, beginning Tuesday 12th January for a duration of 12 weeks, every Tuesday evening 6pm till 8pm.
Since the programme began, participants have collectively lost an incredible 7.5 tonnes in weight!
Jim Thomson, Community Manager with responsibility for the programme said. “Queen of the South are delighted to be part of the Football Fans in Training programme helping local men get fit and develop a healthy lifestyle”.
Spaces are limited so anyone wishing to join FFIT should register with the Club by email at [email protected] or telephone 01387254853.
