Closed Make Football compulsory for all schools across the UK (Public and State)

Closed on

Football is the biggest sport in the world with over 1/3rd of England watching the World Cup games that England were involved in. Some children do not get the chance to play football and excel at the sport, public and state schools.

Every pupil deserves the chance to be involved in a team sport, where it is not physical like rugby, which some students do not want to partake in due to fear of injury.
