The group from St Brigids Primary School in Stockbridge Village regularly attend a girls-only after school club delivered by the LFC Foundation as part of their Premier League Primary Stars programme.

The programme allows the girls to take part in regular sport sessions after school, providing them with an opportunity that they would not otherwise have.

With the girls all having a strong interest in football and wanting to learn more from role models in the game, the group were invited to meet the LFCW squad at AXA Melwood, as well as enjoying a tour of the training ground and watching the team train.

The players spent time meeting the group and signing autographs before they headed out for training, allowing the girls to see first-hand what it takes to be a professional footballer.

Before heading back on the coach for a behind-the-scenes tour of Anfield, they were surprised with tickets for LFCW’s upcoming WSL fixture against Arsenal at Anfield on Saturday May 16.

It was an inspiring afternoon for the girls who were able to see up close the life of a professional footballer and will be able to see their heroes in competitive action later this month.

Kerry Quinton, the girls’ teacher at St Brigids, said: “From the training ground to Anfield, the girls left feeling inspired. Meeting the team was an unforgettable experience for the girls along with then watching them train. From the experience, the girls left energised and ready to cheer the team on against Arsenal.”

You can join the girls at Anfield for the upcoming LFCW fixture against Arsenal, which kicks off at 1pm BST, with tickets still available here.
