McDonald's arranged for the most expensive footballer on the planet to deliver their 100,000th kit to Sully Sports FC Under-13s in Wales, and Real Madrid and Wales star Gareth Bale took part in their training session too.
In its second year, the scheme offers every accredited grassroots club in the UK a free kit as part of McDonald’s ongoing partnership with the Football Association Wales, Scotland, England and Northern Ireland.
Football Association Wales (FAW) ambassador, Gareth Bale joined Sully Sports FC after scoring in Wales’ 2-0 win over Andorra the night before, to surprise the team at a training session.
He joined the club’s under-13s side for a training session with the youngsters, passing on tips and advice.
Following the coaching session, Bale said: “Every time you put on a Wales shirt and play for your country, you feel a wave of pride and passion. It is a feeling that will never leave you. It was fantastic to see that pride in the kids’ faces today when wearing their new kit.
“I still remember the time I put on my first ever football kit, you never forget your first match. It is a brilliant feeling to run out and play alongside your friends. From grassroots football to playing for your country, your kit is what makes you a team and every one of these players today can now enjoy playing in a top quality kit thanks to the McDonald’s programme.”
