The inaugural Etihad Airways Manchester City Football Club (FC) Soccer Schools will take place next month in the UAE’s capital city and Al Ain. Abu Dhabi’s Emirates Palace Hotel will host the first three days of action from Monday 5 to Wednesday 7 April, with the final day taking place at Al Ain Football Club on Thursday 8 April. Etihad is the lead club and shirt sponsor of Manchester City FC and will fly out star players -Sylvinho and Michael Johnson - as well as club legend Mike Summerbee for the event. Five of the club’s coaching staff will also take part and pass on their knowledge and expertise to more than 400 local children aged between seven and 14 years old. “It is wonderful to assist the development of sport within the emirate of Abu Dhabi and hugely exciting for the local children to have access to these English Premier League stars. “The club will be able to see some fantastic Emirati talent on show and it is a great chance for Etihad to once again support grass roots sport in the UAE.” Gary Cook, Chief Executive of Manchester City Football Club, added: “I am delighted that Manchester City is able to work with our friends at Etihad Airways to develop football further within the UAE. “The Etihad Manchester City FC Soccer Schools will be a wonderful occasion for these youngsters and a great way to enhance the number of children playing football in the emirate.” “We thank Etihad Airways, Manchester City Football Club and all the event partners for assisting the developments of youth football here in Abu Dhabi."
