Milestone Group PLC : MoU signed with 10 London Football Clubs' Community Schemes

Milestone, the AIM quoted (AIM: MSG) provider of digital media and technology solutions, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") with ten London football clubs' community trust schemes to deliver a pan London focused community football tournament in summer 2013.

These clubs are:

  • AFC Wimbledon Community Football Scheme
  • Barnet FC Community Trust
  • Brentford FC Community Sports Trust
  • Charlton Athletic Community Trust
  • Crystal Palace FC Foundation
  • Dagenham & Redbridge FC Community Trust
  • Leyton Orient Community Sports Programme
  • Millwall Community Scheme
  • Queens Park Rangers in the Community Trust
  • Watford FC's Community Sports and Education Trust

This tournament will supplement the launch of Milestone's social engagement programme, the Passion Project, which was announced on 29January 2013. The Passion Project will use a number of digital media and sports engagement tools to help young people identify skills, access training and employment opportunities.

The tournament is the first engagement activity planned by Milestone to launch the Passion Project. The tournament is expected to attract and enrol large audiences of young people, which, when aggregated, will help promote both the initiative and its partners' aims within the target audience.

A wide number of key strategic partners have been involved in the creation of the Passion Project and further details will be announced in the near future.
