Unbeaten kids get Liverpool invite to Anfield

The Worksop Boys Club Under 8s ‘Yellows’ squad were invited to Merseyside to play against the Premier League club’s academy side.

Manager Paul Boardman told the Guardian it was a chance not to be missed.

“I jumped at the chance when I got the phonecall from the academy to take the boys there on a Sunday afternoon.”

The big day out began with a tour around the iconic Anfield football ground.

The boys had a look around the changing rooms, where Premiership stars like Steven Gerard prepare for games, and the Anfield pitch.

They then travelled to the training ground for their match.

Boardman said: “I’m extremely proud of what this team achieved last season, and this was a fantastic opportunity for the boys, and the football club.”

“Everyone had a fantastic day, and I have to thank the boys, and all their parents, for their continued support.”
