Father Christmas at Mini-Soccer

With much 'Ho, Ho, Ho-ing' Father Christmas joined in with a penalty shoot out much to the delight of the 20 children aged 4-7 years who couldn't wait for the opportunity to ‘beat Father Christmas'! 5 year old Wilf Slater was heard to gasp, "Santa's here!”. Sadly for Father Christmas he proved to not be very agile in the goal at all and despite his best efforts jumping around in his wellington boots and rolling around the goal mouth he didn't save any of the penalties! When all the children joined in to take a penalty at the same time he decided to huddle down and accept he was beaten!

The children all enjoyed Christmas juices and biscuits while Father Christmas handed out sweets from his goody bag before the children all waved him off and wished him a safe journey. 4 year old Noah Teagle was thrilled to go home and report to his grandad, David Teagle that he had, "scored against Father Christmas”.

St Agnes AFC mini-soccer will restart in January after the Christmas break, all children of all abilities are welcome and for more details please either contact Mandy Kimmins Chariman of St Agnes AFC on 07974 370666 or check out the St Agnes AFC website www.stagnes-saints.co.uk
