I strongly recommend PG10 to any organisation school or individual who is looking to improve and develop new skills, Peter Griffiths and PG10 Coaching are the right people to help the development of children football skills, and develop children's life skills and opportunities.

" PG10 Coaching is a great way to get involved in football and to get fit and active. I encourage children and young people to get involved in the positive activities and events Peter Griffiths and PG10 coaching provide so all children of all abilities learn new skills and techniques"

John Hartson Former Wales international and Arsenal FC, Celtic FC, West Ham FC, West Brom FC Coventry FC Wimbeldon FC star said

 

"I was on the bench for the champions league final for Liverpool in 2007. I didn't get to appear. I was disappointed not to appear. I was at my wit's end. I had a mate working in Sierra Leone. and he said why don't you come out and see me. I fell in love with the place. It really scared me but I felt I had to do something. If I didn't I'd regret it for the rest of my life.”
"To play in the league they must go to school, it's not about football it's about education.. it's been a massive success, truancy rates have gone down, UNICEF say it's one of the best things that has happened to Sierra Leone"
"Everyone here has a story about the war, with a war that's only 10 years old you are bound to have people who are affected by it. . But what I love about the people of Sierra Leone is that they see a future for themselves l fully support projects in Sierra Leone and wish Peter his colleagues and the young people from Cardiff every success with their project in which l'm sure will make a huge difference to children in the country”

Crag Bellamy of Wales and Liverpool FC said of the football project in Sierra Leone during December 2011

I fully support sport events such as Cardiff Street Soccer which have a huge impact on young peoples lives. I am from a tough background where life on the streets is hard and I appreciate what an impact sport can have on young peoples lives. It is nice to support a great event and give something back to young people and local communities.

PG10 Coaching is a great way to develop new skills and techniques, PG10 not only develop children's football ability but also provide children with important life skills. I can recomment PG10 to any school parent or group and encourage children to take up opportunities under Peter Griffiths and PG10 Coaching.

PG10 Coaching is a great way to get involved in sport and develop your childs skills and football ability. I can recommend PG10 to any school or child and support the fun opportunities PG10 provide. I can encourage both boys and girls to get involved and get active and healthy.

Wales Women Professional Golfer Rhian Wyn Thomas

Speaking from first-hand experience, having coached with PG10 and seeing my son involved as a player too, I have witnessed the benefits schemes such as this bring. From my son Harri’s perspective, I have seen him grow in confidence both on and off the pitch and the immense enjoyment he derives from playing and being successful at football. This has led him to be involved with several professional clubs. Personally, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with kids from my local area and being able to help them grow as players and most importantly people. Sport is a wonderful way for children to learn many of life’s lessons whilst having a great time in the process!

Frank Rowe Sports Director at Aberystwyth University and parent

I fully support and recommend PG10 coaching to any children and young people. 3 years ago my boy was given the opportunity to join the PG10 development centre in Aberystwyth,and the experiences he gained will always stand him in good stead for the future. First and foremost the coaching was outstanding and the social skills that he acquired were first class. Through PG10 he attended further coaching sessions at both Liverpool and Cardiff FC and he had regular games against professional clubs like Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Aston Villa, Liverpool, Shrewsbury, Cardiff and Swansea and also against Welsh Premier League academies like TNS and Llanelli. When he started he was avery shy reserved boy from an extremely rural community but he is now a confident social 10year old - thanks to the opportunities that PG10 offered. My son was fortunate in that I was able to support him with travel etc but there were several children who had the same opportunity from a far more deprived background. Indeed I transported many in my car. These children who love football and idolise their heroes would never have had this chance had it not been for Peter Griffiths. One example I can give is the day I took them to Liverpool FC to play on their academy facilities. To see these boys wide eyed and open mouthed when they arrived was brilliant as they walked through the corridors and saw photos of legends of the game on the walls. On that day they were Premier League players as they lived their dream for a few hours. Peter Griffiths who has moved to Cardiff is a huge loss to Aberystwyth but is certainly someone's else's gain, but my son will always be indebted to the opportunities and the experiences he received through this scheme. Whatever level of football he will play as an adult his full potential will be always be down to the coaching and opportunities he received through PG10 and I fully recommend this scheme to anyone.

Having had the pleasure of working with many top coaches in a number of countries around the world, I am confident in saying “Peter Griffiths” is up there with the best I have had the pleasure of working with. Not only is Peter a first class coach but also a highly distinguished individual whom deserves the accolades he enjoys from the many students and organisations he works so closely with in striving for excellence

With PG10 you don't just learn football, you learn life skills that you can continue to use for the rest of your life! Get skilled get active with PG10 Coaching

PCSO Tim Jones of South Wales Police

PG10, it's not just football! With their sessions based co-operation and team skills, health, fitness and well-being, they tick so many curriculum boxes it's one less thing to think about as a busy teacher

Alun Roberts Head of PE Iolo Morganwg Primary School

Having worked in the police service for 24 years I have seen and experienced much which is good and bad in society. I have dealt with people from varied backgrounds. What is given though is that whatever background that children come from, is that participation in sport is a great equaliser. I have seen this over many years. Children from less well off backgrounds are given an equal chance to compete. It is their skill and commitment that is important and not where they come from. Sport is a great way to boost the self esteem of children if properly run. I have known Peter for the last ten years and know how good he is with all children. I know that PG 10 will be a great success and will help many children of all backgrounds. I wish Pete every success with this venture and will have no hesitation in including my own children.

Alun Samuel South Wales Police Inspector
