Let me shoot my shot for my dadโs football team.
My dad has a young boys football team called Noble Warriors in Nketia (Kumasi). Heโs been managing them over 10 years now. It started off by he trying to prevent the young boys from going wayward in the area. 1/2
Hello @LCFC
Iโm Olaogun, a winger also played as a striker from Nigeria. Iโve spent the last 3 years training daily to get one shot at professional football.
Iโm not asking for a contract. Iโm asking for 7 days on trial to show you what I can do. If Iโm not good enough, Iโll walk away with no hard feelings.
Iโm fast, direct, and I work harder than anyone on the pitch.
My highlights are here: https://t.co/nD68FCLsMn
Thanks,
Olaogun

Dear Fortuna Dรผsseldorf,
I am a young Ghanaian footballer eager to join your club and help drive us back to the Bundesliga. I am fully committed to giving everything to climb the ranks and achieve promotion. To prove my dedication, I am willing to play the first 8 months of my contract for free.
I believe in this project and would be honoured to contribute. Looking forward to the opportunity to discuss further.
Best regards,
Bernard

In November 1996, a photograph appeared in the Liverpool Echo showing an 11-year-old Everton mascot walking out for the Merseyside derby. That child was Wayne Rooney.
It is one of the earliest recorded images of the use of mascots- which has since become one of the most commercially valuable traditions in world football.
Every Premier League matchday, over 440 children walk onto pitches across England holding the hands of professional footballers. Most people assume it has always been this way. It has not. And the story of how it started is more interesting than the tradition itself.
The practice began informally in the mid-1990s with one or two children per team. It became global policy in 2002 when FIFA partnered with UNICEF on a campaign called Say Yes for Children, designed to protect children's rights worldwide.
The most visible element was simple: one child walked out with every player before every World Cup match, wearing FIFA/UNICEF t-shirts as a symbolic reminder that football had a responsibility beyond the result.
From 2002, it became commercialised. McDonalds became the primary sponsor of the Player Escort Programme at the World Cup and European Championships. At the 2006 World Cup they sent 1,408 children from 35 countries to Germany. At the 2010 World Cup, 1,408 children from 47 countries.
At the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, 1,408 children again, this time from across 70 countries. According to available estimates, McDonald's pays FIFA between $10 million and $25 million per year for its overall World Cup sponsorship, of which the Player Escort Programme is the centrepiece.
What started as a UNICEF advocacy moment is now one of the most consistently sponsored pieces of real estate in world football. The handshake before kickoff. The anthem. And eleven small children holding hands with eleven millionaires. All three have a sponsor. And it all started from somewhere.

Remember Leonard Prescott? Bayern's 16 year old goalkeeper that will be featuring for them tomorrow night?
Bayern Munich need a government permit to play him tomorrow. Not a football permit. A labour law permit. Welcome to the world of Sports Lawyers..
Leonard Prescott cannot legally play at 9pm in Germany. He is 16. The law says under-18s are to stop work at 8pm. Bayern are currently applying for a special exemption for him tho.
I always say that sports law does not exist in a vacuum. Wednesday night is the proof. Because right now Bayern Munich are not just dealing with a goalkeeping crisis. They are dealing with a labour law collision that nobody saw coming.
Under Section 8(1) of Germany's Jugendarbeitsschutzgesetz, minors under 18 are prohibited from working after 8pm. The Champions League match against Atalanta kicks off at 9pm and ends around 11pm.
Prescott cannot legally participate without a special exemption permit from the relevant trade supervisory authority. That permit also requires consent from both parents, his pediatrician and his school before it can be approved. According to @Gazpachen Bayern are currently processing that application.
If the permit is approved, German law then requires a minimum of 12 hours uninterrupted rest before his next working period. So the day after a potential Champions League debut, a 16-year-old legally cannot be asked to train before midday.
Hope you have learned something today.
