Spartans FC has encouraged other clubs in Scotland to follow their lead in giving youngsters opportunities and keeping them out of trouble.

A football club is channeling the support from its young fans to address anti-social behaviour and youth disorder in Scotland.

Kenny Cameron, youth work manager at Spartans, explained to the Record: "They were desperate to see us do well but they just lacked a bit of guidance. It was a bit disorganised and there would often be silly disagreements. Now, they attend Ainslie Park Stadium every Friday to participate in a supporter's enterprise where they write their own songs, design clothes, fundraise and budget for things like travel and flags.

Spartans has encouraged other clubs in Scotland to follow suit and to use the passion of their young fans to their advantage. "The positives far outweigh the negatives. Young people just need a chance to show what they can do."
