Did Eman from SV2 have Russell and Marieanne nervous? The YouTube star joined us at our Staplewood Campus in September, as winners of a Saints run competition played a seven-a-side match against each other, with teams managed by Eman and members of our Men’s First Team.

Saints Club Members, Junior Season Ticket Holders and Junior Members were given the chance to enter the competition and play in our state of the art training facility.

Watch our highlights from the day at Staplewood Campus:

After entering the competition, twenty eight young people were invited down to join in and be managed by Ryan Manning, Sam Edozie, Joe Lumley and Eman, with the match split into two 20 minute halves.

Those involved got the chance to achieve a dream by playing on the pitch with Ryan, Sam, Joe and Eman and create a memory for a lifetime.

Here’s what parents had to say

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the most awesome afternoon. Both James and Izzy had the absolute best time (despite losing by a big margin 😂🤦‍♀️) and loved every moment.

Not many kids their age can say they’ve actually played with Sam Edozie, Ryan Manning and Joe Lumley - let alone in Staplewood Campus and in the new Saints kit! Super lucky kids (and lucky us getting to watch it all).


I’d just like to thank Saints Club for the junior football match my son Dylan attended yesterday. He had the time of his life and hasn't stopped smiling. When we got in the car he said, 'This has been the best day of my life'. What an amazing memory for him to look back on.

Thanks again for making a 10-year-old’s dreams come true (his mum was pretty start struck too).


I just wanted to say a massive thank you for Monday. It was a great event and Max had the most amazing time - he’s still buzzing!
