Would moving kids' football to a summer game help improve the development of young footballers?
Yes - better pitches mean a better chance to develop technique/skills
No - wouldn't make any real difference to development
Maybe - but I'd be worried about more injuries on firm pitches
Secretaries and YFFC Committee members - Gregor Ferguson, Willie McIntyre, Linda Sneddon and Colin Wright.
