Twilight Football
This joint venture between Stenhousemuir Football Club and Falkirk Council has set up an opportunity for boys and girls from any Secondary School to play football.
The participants can play in football or Astro boots. Stenhousemuir Football Club will provide all other equipment as required. Our supervising staff organize teams on the night, so no one will miss out.
As games are played under floodlights, this gives a totally different experience in how to play football, and this helps to provide some of the enjoyment for the young players.
Games are set up on the night for most age groups, all with the emphasis on playing football rather than being coached.
The event is set out and organized to ensure that young people are playing against others of approximately the same age. Young people are encouraged to bring their friends, as they may be able to have their own team, which adds to the competitive feel of the games.
The popular Twilight Football sessions are run at Ochilview Park and announcements are made on the website when each block is about to commence.
