Earlier today the England Supporters Club hosted our Play on the Pitch at Wembley competition, in what will be remembered as one of the most memorable & exciting moments in all the players lives.

Enjoying all that a match day at Wembley has to offer, the 32 lucky winners changed in the England dressing rooms before being led out of the tunnel onto the pitch. The home teams were managed by Matt Le Tissier and the away teams by Darren Anderton. The thrilling games of football were watched by many of the players’ guests.

One of England Women’s most capped players ever Casey Stoney, and Ellen White with 117 England caps, joined the Women for pre-match warm ups and cheered on the teams throughout the game.

The thrilling games of football ended with 1-0 to the Men’s Away team and 4-3 to the Women’s Away team, with both sides seeing some fantastic play and cracking goals. After each of the games, both teams were led up the 107 steps to the Royal Box to receive their post match medals, with a host of photo’s being taken by all involved.

England Supporters Club would like to thank all of the players, guests and people who made it possible for helping to create a fantastic day. Watch out for more exciting competitions from us coming up.
