The Watford FC Community Sports & Education Trust has launched a new programme, 'Make Every Player Count', offering inclusive football and multi-sports activities at Meriden Community Centre.

The initiative aims to provide weekly, accessible, Pan-Disability football sessions, encouraging regular physical activity in a supportive environment. Currently, two football sessions are held at Meriden Community Centre every Friday. Participants aged 18 and over can join from 4pm to 5pm, followed by sessions for those aged 9 to 17 years old from 5pm to 6pm.
With support from the council, a new multi-sports club is also being introduced at the same venue. These sessions will run every Thursday from 4:30pm to 5:30pm.
Furthermore, SEN (Special Educational Needs) & Pan Disability holiday camps are scheduled to take place at Meriden Community Centre during the October half term. These camps will run on Monday 26 October and Tuesday 27 October, from 10am to 2pm on both days.
