The goal is to raise standards in Grass Roots football, from investment in coaching accreditation courses, to supporting clubs in raising their profile and identity in their communities, becoming a Nike Partner Club provides an exciting opportunity for development to leading Clubs

Enjoying one of the many benefits of being a Nike Partner Club, two of our Partner Clubs were offered the fantastic opportunity to play at St. Georges Park on June 13th 2017, the home of the English National Team on a 330-acre site at Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, and the base of the newly crowned England U20 World Cup Champions.

From beginning to end, both teams received the luxury treatment and were made to feel like professional footballers. Having access to St. George’s Park’s world-class sports facilities, the teams changed in the England team's dressing room, and had a pre-match meal before taking to the England Squads training pitch for a pre-match warm up. The match itself was played at a high tempo whilsts being competitive but fair. Both sides created ample chances and showcased their skills. With all three goals coming in the first half the match ended 2-1 to Glossop Juniors.

As a great gesture, we decided that both managers should pick a ‘Man of the Match’ from the opposing team. Teversal FC chose Lee McNamara as the Glossop Juniors Man of the Match and Glossop Juniors chose Luke Bacon as the Teversal Man of the Match.

Huge thanks again to Nike for this amazing day and it certainly was an experience of a lifetime the players, parents or coaches will never forget.
