Rejected petition Keep grassroots football going

We want the gorvenment to allow grassroots football to carry during the circuit-breaker lockdown

More details

It is vital for our fitness and mental health that football carries on. Although watching the higher leagues on television is fun it is no where near as good as playing football or watching lower leagues play. Me as a 13 year old who plays football it’s vital for us to carry on playing for our well-being
