IRELAND & ENGLAND – “CIRCLE”

Oh what a night! Better still............ two nights!

On two cold nights in November and miles from home (Celtic Park as opposed to Hampden) 10 of Scotland’s youngest fans braved the elements and joined in the fantastic support of their national team. The opposition were Ireland, in what was a crucial Qualifying match for Euro 2016 and the other a simple friendly against them from south of the border.

Most of us remember the excitement of our first match – hope, expectation, bewilderment, amazement, awe, exhilaration, joy......

......TACC had worked with the Circle Charity to enable 10 fabulous kids to attend their First Scotland match and experience the excitement. No idea why Liam might have been apprehensive, standing next to two of Glasgow’s finest – but he met up with Bonnie a bit later and fell in love, so we’re told.

Thanks to our sponsors SFA/SSC, all of the children received tickets for themselves and carer or parent and were wearing their new Scotland tops with £10 pocket money for the game, provided by TACC.

“Good, brilliant, exciting.

Magic to see Scotland –

it was the best”

It’s OK really to have your scarf upside down, especially as the game turned on its head too – I don’t think Che was too bothered, as long as he was waving it.

“Thank you very, very, very, very, very, very, very much – the best experience ever”

Reece even produced a new tactic which we’ve shared with Gordon Strachan and the best way to enjoy half time is with a Hampden pie (some would say!!)

From Circle – “What a fantastic time was had!!! Thank you TACC for the opportunity for some of the children and parents/carers we support to attend their first Scotland match.”

From our footsoldiers-
Elaine – “Fantastic job you guys do. Looks like good fun had by all”
Paige – “Amazing photos and what an amazing job you all do”
Paul – “Great to see the future foot soldiers enjoying themselves”

Thanks to everyone who is able to support us here at TACC to make the lives of our kids here in Scotland that bit special.
