November 2009

This exclusive opportunity to play in front of tens of thousands of fans beckons for an amateur five-a-side football team to coincide with the final of the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy.

Johnstone’s is giving teams the chance to compete in their national five-a-side competition to be played at Powerleague venues across the UK and Ireland with one unique and ultimate difference - the final will be played just before the kick-off of the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy Final at Wembley Stadium on Sunday 28th March 2010.

You and your team will be taken to the stadium by coach and will be provided with your own team strip. You will have the opportunity to change in you very own dressing room before being led out onto the pitch to take part in the Johnstone’s Paint 5-A-Side Final. There’ll be free tickets to the Final for the two competing teams, so that you can bring your family and friends along to cheer you on to glory!

Decorating Centre Marketing Manager, Gina Laycock is delighted that Johnstone’s are able to open this competition up to members of the general public this year and give even more players the chance to chase every footballer’s dream. “This is a unique opportunity that money just can’t buy, and one which our customers have enjoyed exclusively for the last 3 years. It’s a once in a lifetime chance to play in front of thousands of fans and the ultimate football experience!”
