Players will be available to make appearances on behalf of schools, not-for-profit organisations and community events.   Each appearance will last a maximum of 1 hour and external organisations will be limited to one appearance per calendar year.

  • The requests must last up to a maximum of one hour
  • All appearances are subject to Club approval and cannot be not guaranteed
