120 girls aged 5-8 yrs old, attended the event where they were given fun coaching sessions by the new development centre coaches.
England ladies footballer, Sue Smith was present all morning to help out and join in some of the sessions.
After the girls, a large majority who had never played football before, had enjoyed the coaching sessions they were all involved in a signing England flags which will be sent with good luck messages to the England Ladies team before they travel to Finland for the European Championships 2009.
The girls also had plenty of opportunities to get signed photos with Sue, who is a perfect role model for each girl attending the event.
The Girls Development centres are now launched in Salford, Manchester and Oldham.
