Shakhtar Social and The Sir Bobby Charlton Foundation launched the United Together football training project for children in Ukraine

The Shakhtar Social foundation, with support from The Sir Bobby Charlton Foundation, is initiating the United Together project with football training sessions for boys and girls in three Ukrainian cities: Zaporizhzhia, Lozova (Kharkiv Oblast) and Pershotravensk (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast). Its purpose is to support children living in regions close to the war zone.

Regular football training sessions will take place three times a week, local football tournaments and sessions with a psychologist are also planned. Boys and girls from 7 to 12 years old can join the initiative. It is expected that 240 children will take part in the project.

The partnership between Shakhtar Social and The Sir Bobby Charlton Foundation is an important event for development of children's grassroots football in Ukraine, with United Together being the first project implemented jointly with the English.
