Premier Skills, one of the Premier League's first international projects and run in conjunction with the British Council, focuses on working with up and coming football coaches and giving them football coaching and English language skills that they can use in their local communities.

The visit, which will see the pair return to the project they launched in April 2007, will include coaching sessions for the participants run by Barton and Earle alongside Tony Roberts, a goalkeeper who previously played, and coached, at Queens Park Rangers.

There will also be a closing ceremony on Friday 18th April to celebrate the project and congratulate the coaches on their efforts throughout the week.

Premier League Chief Executive, Richard Scudamore, said: "At home the Premier League and our Clubs have a long-held commitment and reputation for investing in community and education programmes and given our popularity and success internationally we felt it only right to take this approach to a wider community."

British Council Chair, Lord Kinnock, said: "This is a truly exciting, creative initiative. Football transcends race and language among people everywhere. By putting the British Council's experience and global network together with the Premier League's great know-how, we can reach countless young people and help to enhance their skills on the pitch, their self-development, and their understanding of other cultures."

Premier Skills has, over the last year, been launched in Cairo and Alexandria in Egypt and Delhi and Kolkata in India.
