Children's Sports Coach Accused Of Internet Sex With 14 Year-Old Girl

A children's football and P.E. coach, attached to Chippenham's award-winning Stanley Park Sports Ground, has appeared in court charged with internet sexual activity with a 14 year-old girl.

Philip William Boore, 35, of Dover Street, Chippenham is accused of encouraging the girl to expose her breasts and perform sex acts on herself during webcam sessions that lasted three to four hours.

On the local authority's website he is described as a Football in the Community Coach, who has a Bsc degree in Bsc Sports & Exercise Science and holds coaching certificates for Football Level 2 and Cricket Level 2.

He also holds Level 1 certificates in hockey, rugby, badminton, tennis, emergency first aid, child protection and disabled football and works with local schools as a football coach and main P.E. teacher.

Boore gave no indication as to plea when he appeared on bail at Wimbledon Magistrates Court, where he was sent to Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court for a preliminary hearing on July 29 after jurisdiction was declined due to the seriousness of the charges.

The court heard Boore allegedly sent intimate images of himself to the girl, who lives in Mitcham, south-west London and they also exchanged mobile phone numbers and were facebook friends.

It is said he encouraged her to pour wax over her breasts and attach clothes pegs to them and was allegedly in possession of extreme pornography when police raided his home.

Boore is charged with two counts of causing or inciting a child, between May 1 and July 31, last year, to engage in sexual activity and one count of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child.

He is also charged with possessing extreme pornography between the same dates; namely acts involving people and animals, which threatened a person's life.
