Respect Fixture Success
Work on the fixture goes as far back as September, when the Foxes visited Stoke City in the league to promote the fixture, which incorporated youngsters from both sets of supporters for a host of exciting activities.
A combination of youngsters from Leicester City’s Grass Roots clubs and Stoke City supporters took part in both Guard of Honour and Player Escort experiences on the pitch at King Power Stadium, as well as a spectacular parade around the stadium at half-time.
Dozens of young girls and boys also played their part as flag bearers on the day, with a large ‘Respect’ banner also displayed shortly after the players warmed up in t-shirts supporting the campaign.
Aside from those clubs from the Grass Roots Scheme, youngsters of all ages were able to make the most of the day thanks to a special inflatable pitch that was in place outside the stadium courtesy of the Leicestershire & Rutland County FA before the match.
The Club would like to thank all those involved in the success of the day, including the following Grass Roots teams:
Harborough Town
Kirby Kings
Groby Juniors
Hamilton Youth
Ibstock United
Birstall United
Green Towers
Oadby & Wigston
Inclusive Asfordby Amateurs
Ladies & Girls
Leicester City Academy
