Former footballers Dion Dublin and Darren Anderton have returned to the pitch to launch a new once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The former England players were joined by fellow national hero Kerry Dixon and ex-Arsenal midfielder Perry Groves as well as specialist events company Chillisauce.co.uk to celebrate Play With A Legend, an experience which sees retired footballers play a match with fans.
The quartet took to the pitch at Barnet’s The Hive stadium to celebrate the organisation’s temporary exclusive rights to Play With A Legend, which is suitable for stag dos, hen dos, birthdays, corporate events or just a fun day out, and sees supporters play a match against one of their favoured former players who then stick around for a few beers.
Mike Chidzey, spokesperson for Chillisauce.co.uk, said: ”We’re incredibly excited to be promoting ‘Play With A Legend’ exclusively – it’s such an incredible experience.
”These are footballers that we grew up watching on TV, and now we have the chance to actually play football with them, learn from them and even go for a pint with them. For some, this is a dream come true!”
Several other former players available to pick from include ex-England star Teddy Sheringham, former Arsenal players Paul Merson and Ray Parlour and Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier.
Every part of the event is taken care of, including the legends, the venue, the referee and even the pub, so all participants need to do is turn up with their boots ready for a good day or night out.
Packages start from £60 per person, with costs varying dependant on how many are in attendance, how many legends are booked and the venue with which the activity will take place.
