If you’re thinking of getting something extra special for the Liverpool fan in your life this Xmas, why not gift them the ultimate present: a chance to play for their team on the hallowed Anfield turf…
Liverpool FC have teamed up with Football Aid – www.footballaid.com – once again to offer fans the unique opportunity to play at Anfield in 2014, and with proceeds from the games going to the LFC Foundation it won’t just be your loved ones who benefit this Xmas either.
Football Aid offers the perfect present for the football daft family member – the opportunity to experience a matchday in the same way the likes of Steven Gerrard, Daniel Sturridge, Luis Suárez and co do every other week. Players will gain exclusive access to the pitch and tunnel areas, pull on their own personalised shirt in the official changing rooms, walk down the tunnel to the sound of a cheering crowd and step out on the hallowed turf and represent The Reds in a never to be forgotten 90 mins of football!
To add to that, the matches at Anfield have also been supported by a host of fantastic Reds legends in recent years, with the likes of John Barnes, Alan Kennedy, Jim Beglin, Mark Wright, David Fairclough, Rob Jones, Howard Gayle, Football Aid Ambassador Jan Molby (and many more) all lending their extra special support by playing alongside or managing the fans on their big day.
Securing your position couldn’t be easier, just visit www.footballaid.com and choose the Liverpool games and then you’ll have two Fixed Price options: Option 1: Buy Now – Book your place with a one off payment, or Option 2: Sponsored to Play – Pay a non-refundable £100 deposit for your place, then pay the remaining balance anytime before the 31st Jan 2014.
Liverpool fan Paul Hewson played in 2013 and told Football Aid about his experience after last year’s event:
“You’ve all seen it on telly, maybe lucky enough to see it from the stands but until you have experienced walking down the famous tunnel, touching the ‘this is Anfield’ sign and walking out onto the pitch as a player only then will you ever come close to the feeling the players get when they play their first game on Anfield.
The whole day was superbly organised from start to finish and an absolute pleasure to have been a part of. The work you guys do is amazing from what was a quality day, only other fault I could find that the game was only 90 minutes long…it could’ve done with another 90 minutes as it flew in. Would definitely do it again next year.”
