Play at Celtic Park -The perfect Christmas gift

IF you´re thinking of getting something extra special for the Celtic fan in your life this Christmas, why not gift them the ultimate present – a chance to play for their team on the hallowed Celtic Park turf.

Celtic FC have teamed up with Football Aid once again to offer fans the unique opportunity to play at Celtic Park in 2014, and with proceeds from the games going to the Celtic FC Foundation it won’t just be your loved ones who benefit this Christmas 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 Scott Brown, James Forrest, Anthony Stokes 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 Bhoys in a never-to-be-forgotten 90 minutes of football.

To add to that, the matches at Celtic Park have also been supported by a host of fantastic Celtic legends in recent years, with the likes of Football Aid’s Vice-Patron Danny McGrain, Paul Lambert, Neil Lennon, John Kennedy, Tom Boyd, Bobby Petta and many more all lending their extra-special support by playing alongside or managing the fans on their big day.

Celtic fan Kevin Jordan played in 2013 and told Football Aid about his experience:

He said: “Just a quick e-mail to thank you and all the people at Football Aid for the experience, you all made the experience more special than I can put into words.

“The care and attention showed to me and my son Dominic who was a mascot was nothing short of fantastic!

“My wife had got caught in traffic on the way to the game and the Football Aid staff looked after Dominic brilliantly pre match. You made it a day that neither he nor I will forget for a very long time.

“As I said, I am struggling to find words to thank you enough, but rest assured I am already planning on taking part next year and looking to enrol a few friends also in this wonderful experience.

“Thanks again for making a dream a reality.”
