Young footballers have been practising their skills at a renovated sports centre.

Children and teenagers from Tottenham Hotspur Foundation programmes shot, dribbled and passed on a new all-weather pitch.

Spurs worked with club kit sponsor Nike to refurbish Tottenham Community Sport Centre’s football facility.

Club legend and ambassador, Ledley King, was on hand to offer advice and encouragement.

He said: “Having a safe space like this for teenagers to play sport is hugely beneficial to the area.

“Local youngsters will now have more opportunities to play sport and meet new friends on their doorstep, helping to improve their physical and mental health and improve levels of anti-social behaviour.

"With the club's stadium development ongoing, we are changing the face of Tottenham and these fantastic new facilities, courtesy of Nike, at Tottenham Community Sports Centre are another example of this."
