Youngsters from disadvantaged backgrounds will have the chance to watch live football for free at Tannadice.

Dundee United's community trust and the city council have joined forces once again to give away season tickets.

To launch the scheme, training was moved from St Andrews to Tannadice on Tuesday so the youngsters could meet the entire Dundee United first team squad.

More than 430 season tickets, Young Arabs' memberships and match day diaries were given to the young football fans.

Depute lord provost Bill Campbell said: "In Dundee we are committed to getting it right for every child and their family.

"This means, no matter your background or circumstances, children, young people and families should have the same opportunities and chances as anyone.

"We have had excellent feedback from children and parents who attended last year.

"It creates time for families to bond together, incentives participation and achievement from our young people and allows some of our most deprived children to access the same activities and experiences as their peers."
