Bootroom plays host to future stars

Evening Standard
16 Jul 2009


It's the mecca for sports kit lovers - where football stars have their boots specially fashioned for their multi-million pound feet.

The Nike Bootroom in Oxford Street was also host to future stars when it opened its doors to members of the Evening Standard Schools XI winners St Bede's, who saw first-hand how every footballing requirement can be met.

Hosted by Conrad Anderson, the boys from Sussex, who won also the Schools FA Cup last season along with the Standard's team of the year, had a great afternoon.

The visit marked the end of a brilliant first season for our Schools League, in association with www.SchoolsFootball.co.uk who link up with area and school football representatives across the country to compile the results.

Secondary schools compete for our Team of the Month prizes and next season Nike will supply special First XI shirts in a choice of colours and new designs.

Conrad, a manager at Nike Bootroom, said: "Thanks to the Evening Standard and www.SchoolsFootball.co.uk for making this happen. We hope next year will be an even greater success."

Schools can join the league by registering for FREE by going to www.schoolsfootball.co.uk and clicking on the red "JOIN" button and follow four very simple steps.
