With the help of a local Freman College student, Connor Stewart, Marketing Zone has created a website for a local youth football club in Hertfordshire. “The site is aimed at parents,” Mark Ganellin, Director of Marketing Zone said. “We wanted to give them a resource they could really use. Alongside useful information on age groups and training locations, we included links to the FA and other organisations. Football should be fun, and we want parents and kids to come with a positive attitude toward the sport.”

Connor, who’s 15 and studying business spent a week at Marketing Zone and worked on the website. “On the first day, I was shown the business and set challenges that would take me through the week. It was great, I really got involved and learned a lot,” said Connor.

At Marketing Zone, helping the community is important. “We don’t just talk about supporting community projects,” says Dee Twomey, Director. “We roll up our sleeves and really get involved. Having Connor here to work on the Cougar’s site gave him valuable insights into what the world of business is all about. And, his work really helped us complete the project.”

The Cougars site is up and running. So far, we’ve had great feedback from the coaches, managers and parents.

Darren Fitzgerald, Chairman of the club commented, “We’re delighted to have been provided with this superb website. Well done Connor and big thank you to Marketing Zone. It shows just how far the club has come since it started nearly 40 years ago. Up the Cougars!”
