ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - Opportunity is knocking for up-and-coming footballers between the ages of 13 and 16, as Flow and Manchester United are to host The Ultimate Football Experience, a skills-based competition, in the territory on March 18, 2017.

Supported by the Caribbean Football Union, the programme seeks to give youngsters, the chance-of-a-lifetime to participate in a talent development football camp; and even earn a trip to Old Trafford, Manchester to see Manchester United vs Crystal Palace on May 21, 2017.

Registration opens this week and not only will the various schools and clubs be contacted, but boys and girls can register online at https://discoverflow.co/flowmanutd.

As the competition evolves, two participants from each market, along with their respective coach, will advance to a two-day skills session in Trinidad and Tobago to experience one-on-one training with CFU and Manchester United Football School Coaches. There, they will participate in a series of drills designed by the coaches and compete for the chance for two finalists and their coach to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Old Trafford in Manchester, England.

Youth development at heart of Manchester United

Manchester United’s Group Managing Director, Richard Arnold said, “Youth development is at the heart of this Club’s traditions and success. The Manchester United Soccer Schools were developed to help spread this spirit to as many children as possible. In recent years our partners have been instrumental in helping the great work of our Soccer Schools coaches reach young people around the world. We’re proud to work with Flow on this project.”

“Like Manchester United, Flow also has a deep sense of commitment to youth development as can be seen by our support of several programmes throughout the region that help to hone the skills of young footballers,” said Garfield Sinclair, Flow’s newly appointed President of the Caribbean. Sinclair also said “We’re therefore proud to work in partnership with Manchester United to offer this once in a lifetime experience to our talented youngsters across the region.”

The Ultimate Football Experience is one of several Manchester United and Flow partnership initiatives. In January, Flow hosted the FA Cup Caribbean Tour during which the Company gave football fans up-close and unprecedented access to football’s most coveted trophy. The final leg of the tour culminated in the Cayman Islands, where Manchester United ambassador Dwight Yorke made an appearance.
