I was invited to perform my football skills to the JFS School. The Purim event seen the end of term at the school and turning up dressed nice and smart I couldn’t not have felt more out of place, unknowingly to me it was fancy dress so looking to the left I see a giant carrot and to the right the power rangers having lunch with Scooby Doo…everywhere you look another creation!
Making my way around the school into different venues to put on a football show to different classes through out the day I learnt 2 things…One being a giant roll of toilet paper is very good at balancing a football on the back of the neck, I should invest in a new kit! And the second being don’t get on stage in a fairly tight orange morphsuit…as before you even do anything remotely funny people get the giggles!
Overall what a fantastic day! The youngsters were great to work with and embraced the whole experience and it was nice to be part of it. You can check out some of the highlights from the day int eh video below
