The former Irish international, Kenny Cunningham, will help the FAI and the FAI Schools launch a new scheme on Monday to provide schools teams with suitable up-to-date development programmes.
The FAI and the FAI Schools intend the programmes to provide clear guidance for football coaches/managers in schools on how best to help their players advance in the game.
It is also the aim of the programmes to increase participation in football in Ireland’s schools over the coming three years.
Kenny Cunningham, one of Ireland’s most respected players when he was centre-back with the International team, will be in Dublin to launch the programmes.
