Following a successful return for our Football Fans in Training programme, we are preparing for a new intake in 2024.

In conjunction with Airdrie Community Trust and the SPFL Trust, our free 13-week programme can help you to improve both your physical health and mental wellbeing.

The programme is available to both men and women aged 35-65, who want to improve their lifestyle and overall wellbeing. You don’t even need to be an Airdrie fan to take part!

And the best part? The programme is completely free!

Sessions are 90 minutes split into two halves, just like the ‘beautiful game’. Over the 13 weeks, you will learn and exercise together with your group - one step at a time.

You will learn about healthy food and drink, getting active, and small lifestyle changes that you can do to make a difference.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet new people too, with laughs and shared effort at the very centre of the programme.

Our programme starts at the Excelsior Stadium in January, with weekly sessions take place on Tuesday evenings from 6:30pm.

Participants should have a waist size of at least 38 inches, or a belly size of 40 inches.

Places are limited, so apply today by emailing Brian Smith at BHS@airdrieonians.co.uk with your age, telephone number, height and weight. All applications are entirely confidential.
