·         regular junior open training days

·         amputee football taster sessions in our nationwide roadshow

·         summer football camps

In March 2016, the European Amputee Football Federation (EAFF) held the first ever European Amputee Football Junior Camp in Dublin, hosted by the Ireland Amputee Football Association.

35 junior stars benefited from this unique inaugural event that enabled them to enjoy quality coaching, have lots of fun and meet new friends.

In July 2017 and 2018, we were delighted to send a number of our Junior players to Warsaw, Poland, and subsequently Rome, Italy for the EAFF Junior Camp where they spent three days training, having fun and improving their ball skills with more than 90 other junior amputee footballers from across Europe. 

​

This annual event run by EAFF continues to grow. In 2019 we hope to send another group of juniors  to benefit from the EAFF Camp in Hoffenheim, Germany.
