Coaching courses A further 14 Letham coaches were put through their paces this week and obtained their SFA level 2 certificates. This now takes the number of qualified coaches at the club to over 80. This is in keeping with the standard required by the SFA Grassroots Community Club of the year to ensure that players are given the best advice and opportunity to improve their skills within a happy environment. It is hoped to attract even more volunteers as it is anticipated that there will be a requirement for the club to have available 100 coaches to meet the ever increasing demand for membership by youngsters be it with new teams (anticipated 22 teams for the new season) or just attending the renowned Footstar Soccer School
