npower and David James Launch First Cap Scheme
By Npower, PRNESunday, December 12, 2010
WORCESTER, England, December 13, 2010 - npower and Bristol City goalkeeper David James have just launched the
npower First Cap scheme, which rewards children attending their first ever
npower Football League match.
Any young fan making their first visit to a League club this season can
get their very own cap, and have their photo taken on the pitch before the
game.
James - who has been capped 53 times by England - joined youngsters at
Ashton Gate to give the caps a head start.
He said: "It's vital clubs do everything in their power to work with
local communities to get the next generation of fans down to watch their
local team on a regular basis.
"There are 72 Football League clubs around the country, each with great
facilities for youngsters and parents.
"The npower First Cap scheme (
www.npower.com/web/football-league/index.htm?autoshow=true) - thought
up by our chairman here at Bristol City - is a fantastic way to give
something to the youngsters with which to remember their first game and
hopefully make them want to come again and again."
npower head of sponsorship Emma Collins added: "We are urging any parents
who haven't taken their children to a game to register with npower and make
their first match extra special.
"There is a huge amount of top npower Football League (
www.npower.com/web/football-league/) action over the Christmas period,
so it's a great time for parents and kids to see their local team in action."
