Admirals would like to say a big thank you to Coventry City FC & in particular Claire Boden Community Involvement co-ordinator for making it all possible.

The recruitment of the next generation of the Sky Blue Army is in full swing follwing the recent launch of Coventry City's Junior Football Clubs Initiative and a contingent from from Admirals JFC have been making thee most of the merits.

The new scheme has certainly been a huge hit so far with over 3,000 children from many local football clubs experiencing the Ricoh roar and enticing youngsters to become lifelong City fans.

Admirals have surpassed 100 tickets bought this season and to say a big thank you, Coventry City Football Club decided to treat Admirals to a day out with a difference...

Thirteen aspiring footballers and their parents were invited to take part in the 'Sky Blue Junior Football Club Meet a Player Day'. They came along to the state-of-the-art Ricoh Media Centre to interview Robert Page and David McNamee.

After quizzing Robert and David, Admirals JFC were presented with an autographed football signed by all the first-team squad including Sky Blues boss Iain Dowie and some complimentary tickets to watch Sky Blues comprehensively beat Hull City 2-0.
