Local Semi-Professional club AFC Telford Utd held their annual Open Day before their Pre-Season Friendly against Aston Villa.
The club held a tournament for the U8 & U9 age groups before the match and we were delighted that our U8 Blues & U9 Blues teams came out on top in their respective age groups.
After a brilliant morning of tournament football, it was then time for our U11 Blues to shine as they were the 'Ball Crew' for the match. They got to line up by the tunnel and welcomed both teams onto the pitch before everyone got involved in the ball crew duties. The highlight for them was meeting Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce before the game and he was kind enough to have a photo with the team.
All three teams represented the club superbly and they should all be very proud of their achievements.
On a side note, Massive thank you to all the staff involved at AFC Telford for all their fantastic work giving local children opportunities in football, We look forward to working closely with you in the future.
