A safe space for disabled children aged 5 to 11 years old to kickstart their football journey is now coming to Lincolnshire!

The Comets programme is safe space where disabled children can believe and belong. It steps outside the usual parameters with a bespoke, flexible way of playing. Because this is football that breaks all the old rules and replaces them with a new one; just be you. 

Lincoln Invictus Inclusive Football Club successfully piloted the programme and have now confirmed they will continue with the 'Comets' sessions to the end of the 2023/24 season.

Lincoln Invictus offer all participants an opportunity to try the sessions free of charge.

What Is The Comets Disability Football Programme?

Comets is a recreational, pan-disability football offer for disabled children aged 5-11.

Sessions take place on a weekly basis, either during the evening or on the weekend and are focused on helping disabled children have fun, whilst building confidence, independence and social relationships. Comets provides an environment in which participants can feel safe and belong.

All sessions are delivered by FA qualified coaches, who have received specific programme training and guidance to provide a safe place for disabled children to try football for the first time and develop key skills.

Why Has Comets Been Created?

There is a lack of opportunity and a gap in the pathway for disabled players of this age, especially in a recreational environment. Comets will help give more clubs the confidence to engage and support disabled players with a fun introduction to football, helping grow this pathway.
