On August 21st twenty two talented young footballers from across the UK were given the opportunity of a lifetime by joining England and Chelsea star Frank Lampard at Wembley Stadium to help celebrate the milestone of one million children taking part in The FA Tesco Skills Programme.
The children – all of whom have successfully taken part in the programme – joined the England midfielder and Skills Programme ambassador Lampard at Wembley, where they got to showcase their talents under the shadow of the stadium’s famous arch and take part in a special skills session, before departing with the Chelsea star on the official England team bus.
The FA Tesco Skills Programme gives 5-11 year olds of all abilities the opportunity to develop their football technique under the watchful eye of The FA’s Skills Coaches, through after-school activities, free holiday skills sessions and roadshows, as well as providing specific support to teachers in primary schools across England.
