The Town took over the Liberty Stadium for training and to meet Leon Britton

Pontardawe Town Juniors

During the Swans FA Cup run the Swans put out a special offer for tickets to all football clubs to come and support the team. Three of our football mad teams - U12s girls Blacks and Whites and U12s boys Whites couldn’t miss out on an opportunity like this and went to the Gillingham, Brentford and Manchester City games to support our Swans.

As if the ticket offer wasn’t enough - there was also a fantastic money can’t buy opportunity - a prize draw to use the Liberty Stadium for a training session or game. Well - we only went and won it much to the delight of our players, parents and coaches.

On the 13th of May we had our exclusive night at the Liberty Stadium - including use of the changing rooms. The boys got the home changing room as they had fewer players - but that didn’t stop everyone having photo ops in there - what an experience, I’m not sure if the players or parents were the most excited.

We took full advantage and arranged round robin matches so each team had two 30 minute games. Just to add to the sense of occasion we had music playing as teams came out of the tunnel to the cheers of the supporters, they lined up, shook hands and played football.

Who won you may ask - who cares - this was the opportunity of a lifetime to play at the Liberty Stadium and we took full advantage and loved every minute. We were privileged to have the legend Leon Britton join in our games which was truly amazing and something we won’t forget. There were many photo opportunities and thank you again Leon for your patience, support and kind words for the players - this is something they won’t forget.

Our players were awesome and so well behaved they did themselves, their families and the club proud. Our supporters did a great job and cheered all the teams on - including the odd call about a biased ref - which may have been right on this occasion.

A huge thank you to the Swans, Liberty Stadium and Leon Britton for a wonderful opportunity we will never forget
