We recently invited a group of extraordinary young people and their families to visit the Lotus Training Centre for a VIP experience day.
Our visiting families watched the first team train from the stand, before the players greeted them pitch-side after their session.
Players signed autograph books, took pictures, gave hugs, and even hosted a penalty shootout starring Todd Cantwell and Tim Krul, who were left in awe by some super spot-kicks.
The day ended with a final surprise for each of the youngsters in attendance, as players presented them each with a signed shirt, plush toy and signed football to take home and commemorate the day.
The youngsters were then invited by the Foundation to the ‘Foundation Takeover‘ fixture against Birmingham City, where one member of the group, Sofia Honey Adcock, brought out the match ball as the Foster’s Solicitors Community Hero.
We also made a short video to capture some of the special moments during both days that can be found across all of our social media platforms.
We gave some brave children an experience to remember with the help of some @NorwichCityFC stars. 💛💚 pic.twitter.com/YUPVjyH1TZ
