The Royals are active partners in Kickz.
Ibrahima Sonko is the ambassador of our scheme. Under the influence of football, the purpose of Kickz is to target disadvantaged areas to create safer, stronger more respectful communities through the development of young people's potential.
We have a new promotional video outlining the basis of Kickz - it is running now in the player to the right of this page.
