PNE Forces

The PNE Forces programme is an initiative run by Preston North End Community and Education Trust which is open to anyone who currently or has previously served in the Armed Forces.

The initiative includes football and social sessions designed to allow forces members of both past and present a way to keep active while forming new relationships with like-minded people, all the while benefiting their mental and physical health.

Every Wednesday night from 8pm until 9pm at We PlayFootball Preston (PR2 3TX), we host a free football hour for members of the Armed Forces and their dependents. Along with this comes the chance to represent the Trust at regional and national tournaments.

Preston North End signed the Armed Forces Covenant in October 2019, demonstrating its commitment to supporting past and present members of the military and their families.

Contact Community Engagement Officer Alistair White by calling 01772 693309 or emailing alistair.white@pne.com to learn more about the Armed Forces programme.
