Burnley FC in the Community are offering every fit and able Burnley fan the chance to live the dream...
Now is your chance to have a go at the following unbelievable itinerary:
Arrive at Turf Moor at 5pm via the players' entrance for pre-game refreshments and then head to the first team dressing rooms to change into their personalised Burnley FC kit.
Enter the pitch for a warm-up lead by the team Managers and return to the dressing rooms for a motivating team talk.
Now raring to go, the two teams will then enter the pitch via the players' tunnel at 6pm, for a full 90 minute game officiated by FA-qualified referees and assistant referees.
After two exciting 45 minutes halves, all players will take part in post-match celebrations including 'Man of the Match' and team photographs - which will be available to purchase alongside video footage of the game.
At 8pm, food and refreshments will be supplied by Burnley FC catering department and players will be free to leave, with match-worn shirt in hand and memories of a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
This experience is open to anyone over the age of 18, male or female, with any level of football experience/ability but players should be sufficiently fit enough to play 90 minutes.
Please note, Burnley Football Club will require anyone interested to complete a medical form and disclaimer prior to playing on the pitch, failure to do so will result in your position becoming void.
