As part of Albion's Young Seagulls Project, the club's sponsors IT First has begun installing new computers in over 50 schools across Sussex to assist learning and enable pupils to interact with the club.

The computers, which have been funded by the Albion, Legal & General and club sponsors IT First, have been supplied to the 28 schools who were members of the club's schools partnership last season and the 25 new schools who have been selected this season.

The first computer was installed on Monday morning at St Wilfrids in Burgess Hill by Sussex computer specialists IT First, with assistance from Albion mascot Gully.

Young Seagulls co-ordinator Matt Hicks explained, "The computers are there to provide a continuous point of interaction between the football club and the schools, while also providing the schools with an effective teaching tool.

"It's part of our ongoing commitment to Sussex schools, which has already proved extremely popular. I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank Legal & General and IT First for their generosity in supporting this initiative."
