Keep Football Crazy Kids entertained this summer at the John Aldridge Soccer School

(PRLEAP.COM) 13 June 2007 – Parents looking to keep children entertained over the summer still have time to book places on the John Aldridge Soccer School this summer, organised by Oceânico Resorts & Leisure in the Algarve. Running from 25 June to 31 August 2007, the five-day courses are open to children aged from 6-15, giving them a chance to build on their soccer skills and pick up some tips from courses designed by football legend and ex-Liverpool player, John Aldridge.

The courses themselves will be run by both qualified football coaches and ex-professional footballers, with tuition offered on everything from shooting and dribbling to defending and heading. The course costs €120 per child per week (Mon – Fri), including all tuition, transfers, coaching, a t-shirt, refreshments and attendance at the prize giving event (together with parents).

The Soccer School is open to families staying at an Oceânico resort and those staying elsewhere in the Algarve. Oceânico’s Jardim da Meia Praia resort near Lagos offers a choice of apartments and townhouses, with an outdoor pool, tennis court and the Destino restaurant.

One week’s self-catering accommodation at Jardim da Meia Praia costs from £200 per person in July and August, based on six people sharing a three-bedroom town house, including Oceânico’s summer discount of 15% off stays at the Lagos resort.

Flights to Faro are not included, allowing guests to book the most convenient flight times with airlines including Monarch (www.flymonarch.com), British Airways (www.ba.com) and Jet2 (www.jet2.com). Car hire or taxi transfers to and from Faro airport can be arranged through Oceânico.
