Sons of Struth FC is a forward-thinking grassroots football club in Glasgow, Scotland. Founded in 2015, the club has grown to 15 teams across all age groups.
In our COERVER500 interview, President, Craig Houston highlighted the club’s challenge of recruiting enough players to feed the club’s U8 teams, and how being a Coerver Partner Club helped find the solution.
“The youngest groups were always the slowest to get up and running,” said Craig. “But since we’ve started the Lions Club, supported by Coerver, we’ve gone from struggling to get enough players for one team, to having more than enough for three teams.”
This year, Sons of Struth should have over 60 kids in the 4-7 First Skills age group, of which more than 20 will be eligible for U8 teams this coming season. And to kick off the new post-Covid season, this September, the club will take 150 players and coaches to Lisbon for a Coerver-Benfica training tour. The club will even charter its own plane to get everyone to Portugal!
