Last Tuesday we had a trip down to Wembely for a day of football with our competition winners. The winners all received the full England experience, from their brand new England shirts and Speciali boots in the dressing room through to a full ninety minutes on the pitch with professional reffs and linesmen. The sun was shining and the pitch was in excellent condition which made for two great games of football!

In the morning winners from our England competition from our Shoredidtch Energy space played a team of friends of Umbro. Justin Warren won the competition for the chance for him and the rest of Team Aspire to play. Then steered his side to a 3-0 victory in the morning, scoring a 30 yard screamer himself.  Justin’s son, 11 year old Jabob also had a run out for the last ten minutes and scored in the last minute of the game to seal the victory!

In the afternoon Frenford Senior FC, winners of the Club Website competition played an Umbro, Club Website and friends team. Embarrassingly they hammered the Umbro team 8-0. I have been hearing some feeble excuses from the Umbro camp over the last week, but there was no denying that Frenford Senior FC was the better team on the day. However, both competition winner teams wore the New England home kit and were given Speciali boots. So possibly it was the feeling of smartness down to the tailored fit that gave them a competitive advantage!
